Hi. Is it correct to have the word (number) "one" in front of the uncountable word "flesh"? Also, when you have the word "whole" before the name of a nation like "Peru," as in "the whole Peru," does it refer to the people of Peru, perhaps all the people of Peru? Thank you for your help in advance.
eg, The gesture was welcomed by the whole Peru.
