I'm not sure what "Marshall Islands vs Marshall Islands (U.S.)" is supposed to mean. When it seceded from the U.S. it didn't change its name so how would that be visible? Also Bangladesh seceded from Pakistan, not India and in 1971 not 1972.

The name on the map/globe would be "Marshall Islands" if independent or "Marshall Islands (U.S.)" if still a US territory.
