You could use attribute routes with two ordered options.

public partial class GlossaryController : Controller {

    [Route("~/glossary", Order = 2)]
    [Route("~/{countryCode}/glossary", Order = 1)]
    public virtual ActionResult Index()
    {
      return View();
    }
}

If you're planning to have region specific routes for all your pages you could add a route to the route config above the default. This will work only for views/controllers without attribute routes.

  routes.MapRoute(
     name: "Region",
     url: "{countryCode}/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
     defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
     constraints: new { countryCode = @"\w{2}" }
  );
