So are you just using titles or the actual films to describe these countries?

He's using what the movie is about. Not necessarily that they take place there, but the people in them are what makes up the country.

Nah. He's just using titles. I don't see how biopic about Ian Curtis describes Germany otherwise. Also Scandiavia and Africa as nations?
