Of course if I want to lie about my country I'll just modify the
form. Or use the drop down list and choose an entirely bogus answer.
About the only time I can see a valid reason for asking someone to
choose a country is to either give them a map, directions, or ship
them something. In any of these cases you will be validating against
a known data set.
Better to let them use a text box for efficiency.
