As you go through more foreigns, you will be able to narrow them down by country pretty quickly.

a little help too with east asian writing....
Korean has a lot of ovals and straight lines meeting at 90 degree angles.
Chinese has a lot of complex characters that cross over each other and make shapes that often look like pictographs.
Japanese (on coins) looks like Chinese strokes taken apart and placed side by side.
