There is a map here that shows the open spots:
http://www.yesterland.com/worldshowcase.html
According to that link there is room for 6 more countries, 8 if they remove the WorldShowplace Pavillion.

Personally I think Australia and Brazil would be a better fit for AK, as the ecosystems are extremely unique and would make for a better draw there (A Kangaroo-filled Walkabout and the Amazon come to mind), and I think they did a really good job with "Anandapur" at capturing the local culture/flavor.
Russia would be an amazing add, and I think Greece has a lot of potential (though they certainly aren't in a position to sponsor a large project at the moment). A Caribbean island could be fun, add a very different flavor/color to the lagoon...

Go in the summer. You'll feel like you're in Brazil at every park.

Thanks for that link. Very cool and some great links on there as well.
The only problem I see there is they'd be getting rid of much of the beauty of World Showcase. There's obviously more room in between some countries than others (China and Germany), but others it would just seem like cramming too much in (Mexico and Norway).

I do believe Raven has already mentioned it, but it seems to be worth mentioning again. The African Outpost area has an extremely limited useable guest area for expansion because of Illuminations storage and prep. In fact, all that's there right now may be all that's useable. I know they need a decent amount of space as a buffer zone because of the propane and other explosives back there.

They are 5 completely unused expasion pads along world showcase, with the ability to expose 2 more with facilities adjustments (translation: moving existing structures).
They are all roughly the same size, save for one 'larger' expasion pad..
It's important to note that the World Showplace events plaza isn't considered in this list.. The plaza isn't going anywhere, it's very popular and used for a multitude of functions... quite a few just finished up as a matter of fact.

That's an excellent idea. So sad to see it go.

Disagree. WS is good exactly the way it is. Future world needs to step up the ride aspect. Any rides in WS should be similar to Mexico and Norway.

How would Snow White differ from Gran Fiesta Tour except that it isn't in water?

There is a concept floating around WDI for some major changes to the Outpost area. Not a new country, but a substantial infrastructure change that would require that area to be totally redone.
Thank You for the awesome link! Don't you think it would be awesome if they combined 2 and 3 and made one mega country with a big ride?

I would love to see at least a couple new countries incorporated. One I didn't see mentioned (sorry if it was) but I have thought about for years would be to add, Greece. They have so much to offer in terms of architecture and culture. Also one of my personal favorite Disney films, Hercules, could be utilized in the country.
Moving the Snow White ride to Germany would be a stellar idea. If only that was a possibility.
I also really would like to see Russia, Australia, and New Zealand w/ the rights to Flight of the Conchords as previously mentioned!

Your right Disney would do a magnificent job with the Greek architecture.

Two ideas:
(a.) Blackhawk Soarin' Over Mogadishu
or
(b.) Eric Cartman's Pirates of the Indian
