  Comments:
In actual usage ~の手に落ちる appears to be 'base unit'. Where ~ might be a country, an organisation or a race. Where 人の手に落ちる is used the 人 is nearly always restricted with an adjectival phrase or some such (e.g. もっとも高い値段をつけた人の手に落ちる、というオークションスタイルだ。 )

Anyway, I don't think this is an amazingly useful entry, but I suppose it's unobjectionable.
