Just because a few idiots get together and create a club doesn't mean the nation they live in follows it. No one in Russia follows rugby AT ALL, and the same can be said generally for the United States, even though those are two countries listed. To the list of "the country doesn't know or care they participate" we can add Ukraine, Poland, Kazakhstan (really absolutely certain about this one), Moldova, Georgia, and China.
Your attempt at adding 94 countries of the world to the "rugby zone" is laudable, but it's no more relevant than saying that Jamaicans compete in bobsled events all the time just because they entered a bobsled team in the Winter Olympics. Token membership is a far cry from actual fandom.

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

Yes, but the way certain Kiwis around here gush over them we should all know the All Blacks.

So you're saying NZ culture is as relentlessly projected as American?

Obviously not, but then American culture is projected in so many ways.

7/10, missed 2, 3 and 4. Number 6 was a lucky guess and I've no idea how I knew Motown *NM*

All of them. Although Motown was a guess and I tossed a coin for souvlaki. *NM*
