Incredibly Hard Riddle!! Bet you cant solve it.?

What country can you take away one s from the spelling and you get the spelling of another country?

Both these countries still exist today, and everbody has heard of them.

First person who answer's gets the 10 points.

Update:

If your head starts to really hurt from thinking to much about this one, I suggest that you give it a break.

Update 2:

O.K here are some hints:

Both the countries are in Asia.

Think Literaly.... It will help!!

    Wow, thats a really good riddle. I don't know it even after looking up as many countries as I can. Since both exist and everybody knows them, then it's one of those riddles that are more simpler than people take them to be, but you say it's incredibly hard! I'll get back to you!
