How about a HARD Geography question?

[AviatorTom]

People seemed to like yesterday's Geography question (How about a Geography question?), so let's try a HARD one.

Are there any countries whose letters in its name are in alphabetical order, either frontward (left to right) or backward (right to left)?

We found at least one country TONGA that's in alphabetical order backwards but we haven't found one forward. Closest one I'm aware of would be NORWaY, but the "a" ruins it, and NORGE in Norwegian isn't even close.

i think i recall some random geography trivia mentioning there are about 3 to 5 countries that fit the criteria but no clue as to which ones.

Using all the letters? None.

Thanks but my boyfriend gets all the credit. I posed the question to him because he's a geography nerd but he didn't think anything would fit. Then he said it would have to be a short name either the beginning or end of the alphabet so we just named all the 4 and 5 letter ones. I'd never have come up with if without cheating.
