Good question.  The law in each of those national jurisdictions will be
relevant.  So rather than all 240 country restrictions to be followed
for all, only the law of the county(ies) in which it is registered
(meaning registrant, and registry/registrar).  So, for example,
registries and registries physically located in Egypt follow Egyptian
law restrictions.  And restrictions under Egyptian law would also
observed for a registration of an applicant in Egypt - even by a foreign
registrar.  And that foreign registrar country's law is also relevant.
So at most the restrictions of 3 countries would be relevant - instead
of all 240 countries' restrictions.

Thanks,
Robin
