There are currently 33 nations signed up for the 2012 Motocross des Nations on September 30 in Belgium. For lots of these nations, they will get no farther than the qualifiers. If a country isn't in the top 19 teams after qualifying races, it must go to the B-Final (if there is room)...with only the winner of that consolation race making it into the big show (for which they will be too tired to do anything).
Missing from the list (some of whom actually host rounds of the FIM World Championship, but don't send a team to the MXDN): Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, China, India, Kuwait, Luxembourg, Philippines, Qatar, Turkey and Ukraine.
