Technically called "CΓ΄te d'Ivoire" I believe.

La francaise saves the day.

By that logic, most of those countries' official names don't start with I, so the map is still wrong whichever way you do it.

Not really. That's their official English name. Same as when Czechia renamed itself from Czech Republic. Both aren't the name in the Czech language, but a country can still change their English name.

No, just don't apply the official names to all of the rest, only the outlier we want to ignore. It's the scientific method.

Quite.

Is there a word for the type of ragebait when it's specifically posting something wrong, so that you get engagement from people telling you why you're a fucking idiot? It should be bannable offense regardless. OP going straight on the block list. Actually skimming their profile they look like a low-effort repost bot anyway
