Is this the "Country of 1st publication" like from the disc credits?  Or is it where the main production company is located?
My one wish for the DVD Profiler online database: Ban or remove the disc-level profiles of TV season sets. It completely screws up/inflates the CLT.
FACT: Imdb is WRONG 70% of the time! Misspelled cast, incomplete cast, wrong cast/crew roles. So for those who want DVD Profiler to be "as perfect as Imdb", good luck with that.
Stop adding UNIT crew! They're invalid credits. Stop it!

Jeff-Fuh-Fuh is correct.
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
The Centauri learned this lesson once.
We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.

They are correct - the country of origin is where the production studio is located.  Hence The Lord of the Rings trilogy is country of origin New Zealand, for Wingnut, the production company, rather than US for New Line who were simply a financing company.

However, as to international co-productions (such as The Battle of Algiers, whose production companies are Igor Film [Italy] and Casbah Film [Algeria]), or films where the country is not listed, just leave the field blank.  There's no other option at this point.
If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.
