Jojo part 3 had references about pakistan I guess.
Also there was an entire anime that took place in pakistan but I forgot its name.
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.

I am also an Indian.
The only I remember in what i watched was in a special short episode of first season of kobayashi-san chi no maid dragon and Anthy Himemiya from Revolutionary Girl Utena also seems from Indian descent.
Also, there was a full anime feature-length movie adaption of a Indian holy book, Ramayana.
Just go and read I'm in Love with the Villainess LN.

Captain Tsubasa and Brazil.

The main character playing for São Paulo against Flamengo.

Edit: In Saint Seiya the Taurus Saint is also Brazilian, but it's never said in the manga/anime.

Olympia Kyklos' creators clearly did their research because it's hella accurate (and funny).

Children of the Whales has characters and places names in Greek which is cool.

The entirety of Akage no Anne is set in Canada. In Shirokuma Cafe and Yuri on Ice there's Canadian characters.

I definitely remember there being some anime where Canada was referred to more casually, but I can't remember which.

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Part 3:Stardust Crusaders
Naruto(Chakras)
Naruto(Indra and Asura)

I'm not sure about the last two, my friends told me that they were a reference to Indian culture

Warsaw is mentioned in Eureka Seven, Warsaw is the capital of Poland
Prequel to Hellsing takes place during Warsaw Uprising (1944) + the 1st ending is performed by polish orchestra
Code Geass movies Akito there is a scene with Warsaw National Stadium
Legend of the galactic heroes one planet is named by a polish town Legnica (btw my home town is located 15 km away from Legnica and I was at highschool in Legnica x) )
One of Nisekoi chapters is called "Zawsze in love" Zawsze is a polish word meaning "Always", + if I am correct in Nisekoi is the scene with locking lockpads to a bridge which is also a reference to a Lovers Bridge located in Wrocław (which is spammed with those love lockpads)
Piano no mori first words are in polish + the whole anime take place in Poland

Animators:

Idk if he still works in studios but he made backgrounds for 5 centimeters per second, your name, and space dandy.

Polish products/stuff in anime:
You can from time to time see Spirytus (strongest alcohol in world which is polish made) which appears in "Ah my goodnes", Psycho-Pass and Bartender.
Żubrówka (polish vodka) appears in Mnemosyne

In FLCL is a scene where Fiat 126p appears which is one of the most common and used cars in the past in Poland which has it's own polish name "Maluch", fun fact Tom Hanks got one as a gift from polish fans.

Mmmh
There isn't a lot of reference to Belgium in anime I think.
I think there's that K-On episode where Mugi brings belgian chocolate or something I don't remember.
Also Hetalia.
But that would count for pretty much any country.
Laurent from Great Pretender is belgian (I think).
There's a character named Jean Claude Magnum in Yugioh wich is a reference to Jean-Claude Van Damme.
I don't know if that would count but there are also FN Herstal weapons in anime.
Like in Jormungand and more ...
The main character in Upotte!!, Funko is a belgian FNC.

Ok I think I'm done trying to find things for my irrelevant country.

Edit: there was an anime adaptation of Hercule Poirot.

I haven't watched it, but I heard that a part of Jojo had an Indian reference.
I didn't knew Chakra from Naruto was actually an Indian reference. I just thought it was a coincidence and I know what a chakra actually is lol.

Thailand here

Bokura no Nanokakan Sensou - One of the characters is from my country
Yuru Camp△ Specials - Mentioned the food of my country
Yuri!!! on Ice - Haven't watched the show, but I heard that one of the characters is from my country, found him as the most favorited supporting character of the show itself here on MAL
Back Street Girls: Gokudolls - Haven't watched this show either, but the reference is hilarious, it's even in the synopsis lol

There are actually a few more I've heard, but I don't remember the names, so I'll put in just these 4.
