Similar to which city is similar to the other city above game
One user will post a country, and the next will decide which other country is most similar to that one and why. This also includes bordering countries or one around the world but has similar culture/geography/politics/etc. Territories such as Puerto Rico, Palestine can be included as well even though they are not countries themselves. Afterwards, the second user picks another country.
EXAMPLE
User 1: Poland
User 2: Ireland both are European countries that are overshadowed, historically fought wars, feuded, and share their largest trading partners with their much larger and more famous neighbors. Both countries are also predominantly Roman Catholic but Ireland has liberalized a lot while Poland has shifted right in politics and have the suffix -land at the end. How about Denmark?
The process will repeat like seen above. Let's begin with Denmark shall we?
I'll go with Netherlands because most of the people live in low-lying areas, which are near water.
Indonesia
Indonesia is pretty unique, being an archipelago country.
I think the only other country that could do it justice is the Philippines.
Both are archipelagos, dominated by a single very populous island. Both are inhabited by a predominantly Malay-descended people with overseas Chinese communities playing outsized roles in the country. And both lived for a long time under US-backed dictatorships in the 70s and 80s.
Iraq
Both of these countries have the hot desert climate alongside with famous rivers that flow through their biggest cities and have been since ancient civilizations. Both countries played a huge role in early BC world history.

Germany
Sweden,
Both countries that culturally seem more reserved than their neighbors, and value efficiency and structure a lot (I have found Norwegians and specially Danes far more relaxed in they way they conduct themselves also in terms of organization and managing goals rather than following procedures and structures), the same way that the Dutch are more relaxed and flexible than Germans.
Bangladesh
Both countries make up part of the Indian subcontinent, ruled by the British empire once, and are religiously different than India as a whole, as both countries are majority Muslim as opposed to India which is mostly Hinduism. But the geographic differences between those 2 countries is Pakistan is mostly mountain desert with Karachi laying in a low lying area while Bangladesh is mostly flat and a little bit hilly in the southeastern portion of the country.
Puerto Rico. This is our first territory that would be mentioned in the game.

I'm going to go with Dominican Republic being island nations in the Caribbean with a similar climate, scenery, and cultures.
South Korea for sure. Both are homogenous east Asian countries that share similar culture, climate though SK is not as snowy as Northern Japan, also not that religious, and have the K/J pop craze that is sweeping the world as of right now. Both Tokyo and Seoul are also not just the most populous cities in their countries but also one of the most populous metro areas in the world as of right now
Mexico I'll give you 2 choices and bonus points if you explain it in 2 great ways.

USA because they share a huge border with each other and with that there has always been movement of peoples and goods there so many people in Mexico have roots in USA and vice versa. Another is the language Spanish as Spanish is widely spoken in both countries, in the USA especially in many parts of South West and Miami Spanish is the most common first language for a majority of peoples.
This is complicated but Brazil is very similar to Colombia, and Argentina geographically since both countries combined makes up 68 to 70 percent of South America's landscape and the parts of Brazil that border these 2 countries are geographically and culturally similar as well. But culturally Brazil resembles Portugal, Germany, Italy, and even the US/certain African countries since it was colonized by the former, and immigrants from the latter 2 settled in the Southern portion of the country, and Brazil similar to Argentina, and the 2 aforementioned European countries are very professional soccer countries with some legends such as Pele, Neymar, etc. hailing from there. The US comparison to Brazil is both countries had a brutal legacy of slavery, while also having huge black populations outside Africa/Caribbean and both have their biggest metro areas having 20 million residents.
Hungary: Anyone?
