Anguilla, Kashmir, Socotra, Minorca, Bermuda, Gibraltar, Montserrat, Pitcairn, the Falkland Islands, Palestine, the Cayman Island, and the Virgin Island are not countries. You've spelled Solomon Islands incorrectly.

Bermuda, Gibraltar, the Falklands and a few others are still part of the UK. There are also a couple answers misspelled, like Gibraltar and Samoa.

Saying countries implies all of these areas are now independent nations. Some still belong to Britain, while others are part of other nations.

you have so many places that are not countries also somao should be samoa, gibralta should be gibralter (actually it shouldn't be on here since it's not a country), soloman islands should be solomon islands. Make the corrections.

You've missed a couple as well. Nauru and Belize spring to mind (although Belize used to be called British Honduras which might be where the confusion arises, Honduras itself being a Spanish colony).
