That is not confusing if a dataset uses the right countrycode stored allso in 
the database. This shows all data correct.
The better way is to use UTF-8 for the Database. A Translation is only 
necessary for identifiers. They should be abstracted and stored with a list 
of theirs translated equivalent at createtime by the usere and should be 
supplemented by other users, in oher languages if needed. Till this point 
it has a standard vallue in the language that is choosen(eg. german "Nicht 
Übersetzt" (not translated)).
