Israel celebrated its 60th anniversary this year. It has been a real country for 60 years, and people like to prove it with their spelling of its name. This error occurs 81 times in OhioLINK, and appears on the B probability section of the errors list. This seems to be a case where we type a word we're used to (real) in the middle of a word.
