None of this options meets the result you get with Mysql :-(
I would expect to get Österreich listed at:
.
Osterinsel
Österreich
Portugal
.

but Mysql delivers, depending on collate either
.
Afganistan
Österreich
Alabanien
.

or
.
Zululand
Österreich
.

or
Österreich
Äthiopien
Afganistan
.

Any idea?

Regs. Peter.
