They're still not countries though. Fact. And that means that even the Soccer World Cup is apparently a farce, because it allows non-countries to compete.
The cricket world cup allows the West Indies and they aren't a country either.
How do you know that Maori don't identify themselves as Maori first and New Zealanders second?
