I like how bands are organized by country but maybe you can have a page with all the countries listed, for easier access. if that make sense.

I don't know if mailto:M@X - country - albeit less conveniently - by typing the following URL into the Address box of your Web browser:

http://www.progarchives.com/Band-list.asp?country=1 - - country=1

where the last digit(s) are a country code, which I assume is mailto:M@X's - country code standards.

The above URL will list Argentinean bands in the Archives. If you replace the 1 with 199 then you will list the bands from Uzbekistan in the Archives.

The country codes that I know for the bands in the Archives are listed below. Notice that country code 140 is for the 'country' Various and 210 is for the 'country' Multi-National. I assume that they were intended to be the same thing, in which case the relevant entries in the database need to be corrected.

Argentina	1
Armenia	11
Australia	13
Austria	14
Belgium	22
Brazil	108
Canada	37
Chile	42
Cuba	53
Czech Republic	55
Denmark	56
England	206
Estonia	65
Finland	70
France	71
Germany	77
Greece	80
Hungary	91
Indonesia	94
Ireland	97
Israel	98
Italy	99
Japan	101
Latvia	112
Luxembourg	119
Mexico	132
Multi-National	210
Netherlands	145
New Zealand	147
Norway	153
Panama	157
Peru	160
Poland	162
Portugal	163
Romania	167
Russia	168
Scotland	208
Siberia	213
Slovakia	211
Slovenia	212
Spain	207
Sweden	178
Switzerland	179
Turkey	190
Turkmenistan	191
United States	197
Uruguay	198
Uzbekistan	199
Various	140
Venezuela	200
Yugoslavia	203

You can enter country codes not on the above list. Try a few, in case I've missed out a country in the above list. My favourite is 9 (maybe the penguins have hidden talents).

Various is different to Multi-National - various means lots of different artists have contributed to the record while multinational means just one band, but with different nationalities within it. If that's understandable?

Funnily enough Carl floyd fan I hope for there to be a same idea, I think it would be great.
