One was made in South Africa in the early days of the project, but I 
don't know how they are getting on now.

Checking out the World RepRap Map:

(which by no means has everyone on) there are reprappers in Kenya, 
Kazakhstan, and Central and South America.  As you'd expect, most 
users are in the developed world, though.
