Fire everybody, fail to pay bills, run it into the ground, then change the name to a single letter? Country of "A", so we're always first?
would Åaland come first?
Oh, man, people ARGUE over that kind of thing.

It boils down to if you consider Å to be a unique letter or if it's a variant of A.
If it's a variant of A, then A would still preceed Åaland as A comes before Aa.
If it's a unique letter, then it would be in whatever sort order is appropriate.
