Do either of these work for you? Note, completely untested, and just off the top
of my head.


select
    (case
        when count1 < 300 then 'Other'
        else country1
        end) as country2,
    sum(count1) as count2
    from (select coalesce(country, 'None') as country1, count(*) as count1
            from userProfiles group by country1) as counts1
    group by country2
    order by (1 = 'Other'), count2 desc


select
    (case
        when count1 < 300 then null
        else country1
        end) as country2,
    sum(count1) as count2
    from (select coalesce(country, 'None') as country1, count(*) as count1
            from userProfiles group by country1) as counts1
    group by country2
    order by (1 is null), count2 desc
