What is one feature that all of the countries at Epcot share?

that fact is true, but it is also inevitable. That's not the answer I'm looking for...any more guesses?

Hehe... they all gave money to the Mouse in order to be featured in World Showcase.
I know not all of them have hosted World's Fairs... Morocco, Mexico, and I think China haven't done that...

I don't know if you can prove that these countries donated. And trust me its nothing silly like that.

Oh no, it's quite common knowledge that the countries involved pay Disney for their involvement... or maybe they just paid for the initial construction and now subsidize the workforce...

All the countries (barely, thanks to Morocco and Mexico) are in the Northern Hemisphere...
Do you mean what feature do the countries share, or what feature do the pavilions at Epcot share?

They all have at least one restaurant, they all have at least one merchandise location, they were all constructed in the 1980's (unless you count the African Outpost), they all have unique area music, they are all landscaped with plants native to those nations...
Come on, FlatlandMounty--there are a thousand things all the countries share. Could you give us another hint to allow us to be a little more specific with our answers?

I was going to say food, but somehow I don't think that's it. Mmm, I'd love to go eat around the world right now. We need a hint!
Drop another coin in slot and I will tell you more.

All countries also sent water to be added to the Fountain of Nations when they were initially constructed. That includes the countries that opened after EPCOT originally opened.

I was thinking the same thing as SeasDiver...hmmm... are they all modeled after a certain area in their country (Italy-Venice, Canada-parliment, etc...)

wow, a lot of interesting stuff
here's a hint to what I'm looking for: At least one building at each Epcot Nation meets this requirement.

If I remember an old TV special correctly, a football field could fit inside all the buildings, but that may be for Future World only.
