Also wtf why is Uruguay not winning?

Because it's painfully obvious nobody genuinely wants Uruguay and that it's just the "stop America" option for Europeans/Canadians.

The only country with a flag on the moon

This is a surprising answer.

Also wtf why is Uruguay not winning?

Why is it surprising that people would vote for the country they're from?  Sure, the whole "beacon of freedom" thing can be overdone, and large swathes of our political culture and built environment are stupidly dysfunctional.  But we took your continent's (not just yours, of course) tired, poor huddled masses yearning to breathe free (hell yearning to just breathe in many cases), and more often than not have fulfilled that promise.  That's a legacy worth celebrating.

In other words,

USA! USA! USA!

Besides, we already had Canada and Mexico win. Only fair to complete the continent.

That's homophobic!

On a side note, isn't the UK actually multiple countries?
