Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Yemen, Syria, Vietnam, Lebanon, Cuba, the Congo, Cambodia, Iran, Nicaragua, Honduras, Somalia
Today they are all beacons of democracy lit round the globe
With brevity, this made me smile.

South Korea, but you have to chop off the least (despite the name) democratic part
While accepting Russia and the US split Korea in half after WW2, I am not sure if it is fair to give the US credit for South Korea (noting they gave us North Korea at the same time). i.e. if South Korea is one of the 12, then I am tended to include North Korea. This is very hard. Japan nuked, korea split in half, the price of democracy is a bit rough.
