1) As long as your globe is not a functional vector map like Google Earth, then an animated .gif image would work,
2) You could base the pixel color under the mousedown that would define which country was selected if each contry had a diff color,
3) There will need to be a database that gets queried for the above selected country, this is either generated by yourself or maybe you have a database already containing this data.
