The Netherlands: 1980, over the government authorizing a company to provide submarines to Taiwan
The Philippines: 1987
Denmark: 1997
Iceland: 1997, for allowing then-Taiwan "premier" Lien Chan to visit
Jordan: 1998, for allowing Lien Chan to visit
Nicaragua: 1995, for supporting Taiwan's bid to join the UN
South Africa: 1996, for proposing a two- China policy
But feeling that Fang had undercounted, another Chinese blogger, "Arctosia", who posts from New Zealand, created a map of countries that "have been clearly fingered by State media or representatives of the Chinese government of hurting the feelings of the Chinese people."
Countries that have hurt the feelings of the Chinese people are in black.
Arctosia listed 42 countries by region:
Europe (12): Vatican City, UK, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain, the Czech Republic, Sweden, Denmark, Slovenia, Albania
North America (2): USA, Canada
Central America (6): Guatemala, Grenada, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Honduras, Nicaragua
South America (1): Chile
Oceania (4): New Zealand, Solomon Islands, Nauru, Marshall Islands
Africa (9): Chad, Malawi, Burkina Faso, Swaziland, So Tomé and Príncipe, Gambia, Liberia, Senegal, South Africa
Asia (8): Japan, Vietnam, the Philippines, Indonesia, India, Jordan, (disputed: Cambodia, Laos)
