I do have one question though, and I know this isn't very common but it still happens. If a new country is formed / or a country splits (such as the Soviet Union, Czechoslavakia, Serbia + Montenegro etc), what happens if a company has already registered the TLD that would be given to that country.

For example, if .msn was registered by Microsoft, and a new country formed years later, would be assigned this TLD had it not been taken, would Microsoft have the TLD taken off them or would the country have to have a TLD that doesn't really relate to them?
