Clue #1 for the country:

1.  Zedong (I promise this isn't as obvious as it looks)

First guess would be China, but for something less obvious, I'll go with Mongolia.

Whoops - I was in the process of guessing Mongolia, because of Mao's promotion of self-determination of ethnic minority autonomy there, but you beat me to it.

There is a  township of Zedong in south Tibet so that would be my guess.

Ok, good, this wasn't as easy.

No on Laos, no on Mongolia.

2.  Triangle national pride.

Egypt: Could the triangle be the great pyramid? But I can't get Zedong to make sense in Egypt. What other places have pyramids?

There are Mayan pyramids in Latin America.

There's also that glass on in front of the Louvre (-:

Bermuda?  I don't know how that pertains to the first clue, though.
