Countries Subscribed to the Newsletter

If you are receiving This is True and the country you’re in is not on this list, please let me know! Thanks.

But first, a note about this list. Even if the world was not in political flux, it’s difficult to define what a “country” is. True defines it this way: it’s a “country” if it [1] has its own “top-level” Internet domain (such as .us), [2] is generally recognized as independent, and/or [3] is otherwise separate but not generally claimed (e.g., Antarctica).

Since the second and third concepts are open to interpretation, I turned to a third party as arbiter if there is no top-level domain (Internet country code). If there is a question about a particular place being a “country”, I consult the American Radio Relay League’s DXCC list — a list of countries that ham radio operators use to determine how many countries they’ve communicated with. Thus, Northern Ireland is on the list since it’s on the ARRL’s list, but Tasmania isn’t because it’s not on the ARRL’s list, even though I have subscribers there who have asked to be included on this list.

Last, I’m no longer maintaining this list as it’s almost impossible to do so without reader input. So do feel free to send me a note if your country is not listed, and it will be added.
