Actually as far as I understand, people in France don't mind the French Bread to be called as such. Usually a bread that is know as " (country name) bread" is one that either is usually regarded as their best bread. Not a rule, but more of an old custom.

French bread
German bread
Italian bread

And so on. If you want a list of breads from different countries:

Challah (Jewish)
Baguette (French)
Pumpernickel (German)
Chapati (India)
Tortilla (Mexico and many Latin American countries, tortillas actually vary a lot from country to country and some are made of maize, not wheat)
Foccacia (Italian)
Pita bread (Arab)
Pizza (it is a bread after all. Italy)
Stromboli (Italy)
Grissini (or bread sticks. Italy)
Brioche (France)
Stollen (German)
Sally Lunn (England)
Greek Easter Bread (Greek, dunno if it has a specific name)
Quesadilla (El Salvador, not to be confused with the mexican dish of the same name, wich is basically a tortilla stuffed with cheese. Salvadorean Quesadilla is a cross of cheesecake and cornbread.)

And so on...there are literally thousands of different breads.

Pumpernickel is associated with Germany. Chapati with India, tortilla with Mexico, Black Rye Bread with Russia and the Arabs and Egyptians also have these enormous tortilla like loaves, only I can't remember the name at the moment, I guess England would be Cross Buns or muffins.

Many cuisines (not countries, but cuisines) have some type of baked product made from some type of flour.

A baguette is only called french bread in countries that don't know better. There are may different regions in France and many different breads.

In South Africa there is "potbrood" (Afrikaans); translated it means pot bread. It is baked on a fire in a cast iron pot. There is also "stokbrood", translated it means stick bread, we make the dough and place it on a stick and then bbq it over an open fire. Very good when you go camping.
