A solution could be to have one competition where these four countries can participate with a physical item, and one for the rest of the countries with a virtual item.

That said, I find it hard to believe that 46/50 European countries won't allow competitions like this. I think it's more a matter of it being more convenient for SE to do it the way they're doing it now.
