When you use pronouns for anaphora, would you use &quot;es&quot; for all countries, or is it plausible to imagine &quot;er&quot; or &quot;sie&quot;, as with common nouns?<p>For example: Vor drei Monaten waren meine Mutter und ich in der Schweiz; wir haben _____ wirklich schön gefunden.<p>Would you accept &quot;sie&quot; here as a reference to Switzerland (because it was referred to as &quot;die Schweiz&quot;), or &quot;es&quot;, or both?  My intution is &quot;es&quot;, but I&#x27;m not not a native speaker and non-native German speakers notoriously over-apply &quot;es&quot; to inanimate things.
