Inspired by this thread - is there a Doper in every one of the fifty three current countries in the [Commonwealth of Nations](http://thecommonwealth.org/member-countries)? I’ll start, representing the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland 😛 Now we just need people from: ``` Antigua and Barbuda Australia Bahamas, The Bangladesh Barbados Belize Botswana Brunei Darussalam Cameroon Canada Cyprus Dominica Fiji Ghana Grenada Guyana India Jamaica Kenya Kiribati Lesotho Malawi Malaysia Maldives Malta Mauritius Mozambique Namibia Nauru New Zealand Nigeria Pakistan Papua New Guinea Rwanda Saint Lucia Samoa Seychelles Sierra Leone Singapore Solomon Islands South Africa Sri Lanka St Kitts and Nevis St Vincent and The Grenadines Swaziland Tonga Trinidad and Tobago Tuvalu Uganda United Republic of Tanzania Vanuatu Zambia ``` ---
