Ignoring MVNOs, are there are any other countries that have more than 4 nationwide mobile networks? I think the US has (had?) a handful of regional carriers that survived on domestic roaming but everywhere else I've visited typically has 3 networks competing, maybe a 4th smaller network, often a newer startup (e.g. Free in France, Rakuten in Japan, in the 2000's it was Three/Hutchinson taking this role using newly-opened UMTS licenses).
