Ask the people in Persia or Siam or Yugoslavia.

The people in Myanmar actually don't mind much, or so says CW. It does kinda piss me off that the US State Department continues to call them Burma, just like a Victorian gramdma.

They never much liked saying Kampuchea either, though Rhodesia didn't seem to bother them too much.
