Answer 1

Ok ill answer my own question. I parsed the file above and used the following code to zoom to the countries:

MapController controller = mapView.getController();
controller.zoomToSpan(
        (maxLat - minLat),
        (maxLong - minLong));

controller.animateTo(new GeoPoint(
            (maxLat + minLat)/2,                 
            (maxLong + minLong)/2 ));
