Puzzle 51 


During the recent BrainBashers cipher convention, a binary code contest took place.

The contest consisted of a binary code transmission where the spaces between the letters were missing and there was no punctuation.

Each letter of the alphabet was translated into its binary equivalent based on its position in the alphabet. The resulting code was then blocked in groups of five digits.
a=1, b=10, c=11, d=100, e=101, f=110, g=111, h=1000, i=1001, j=1010, k=1011, l=1100, m=1101, n=1110, o=1111, p=10000, q=10001, r=10010, s=10011, t=10100, u=10101, v=10110, w=10111, x=11000, y=11001, z=11010

Can you find 10 countries?
10101 10000 11110 10111 11100 10110 011 10000 11111 10011 11010 0 11010 01011 11011 101 11100 01001 11001 01 11011 11110 01011 11111 11111 11010 11101 10100 11 10100 11111 11011 11 10000 11110 11101 1 11011 11111 10111 11111 10010 011
