The only one which I can see might be the problem is the W. The only W on this map is Western Sahara. That is, however, not the official name for that country. The official name is Sahrawi Arab, and so adds W to the list.

Hmm ok.
The official name for Algeria is People's Democratic Republic of Algeria, so take P off The official name for Angola is Republic of Angola, no more A's, so add A to the list All the E countries have official names that don't actually start with E, add E to the list. etc. nvm
