1) Floating to the right is a bit odd. Most folks read from right to left.
2) IE, which is almost always a problem, may need you so set a height
for the floated block. It also has the benefit of keeping a consistent
'grid' look to the rows. I would adjust the height that would work to
accommodate the longest caption. I think you need to read up on CSS
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/cover.html
and practice a little bit first and get a handle on what certain
properties do.

Might be best for you. Your current method has a problem with long
captions like "Islamic Federal Republic of the Comoros". But for the
record, what you wish to to can be done without relying on tables.

Most come around after wasting countless hours debugging a website only
to find a letter case error!
