Me suena raro.
¿Dónde se dice con De?

La partícula "to" indica caso dativo o ablativo, lo que equivale a "de" o "a" en español. Y la manera en que está escrito me gustó más que "¿A qué país está cerca?"
Ahora, con la omisión de "de" perdemos el subjeto de la oración. El subjeto aquí es "it" (aquello), pero con la omisión de "de", el subjeto ahora sería el país del que se pregunta. Claro que aún sin "de" es una frase válida, pero el equivalente inglés ya sería diferente.
Fue una decisión difícil, pero es la que tomé.

Gracias.
Aunque "A" me parece mejor para decir "to"

Tienes toda la razón: generalmente sí, "A" es mejor para decir "To".
