How to route everything to a specific action except About

I want every link like:

mysite.com/England/English

mysite.com/France/French

mysite.com/Canada/French

To open in this action:

public ActionResult Country(string country, string language)

but if it's the About:

mysite.com/About

should go to: 

public ActionResult About()

everything else should go to homepage

public ActionResult Index()

I've tried doing like this:

routes.MapRoute(
        "NewRoute",
        "{id}",
        new {controller = "Home", action = "Country", id = UrlParameter.Optional}
        );

routes.MapRoute(
        "AboutRoute",
        "About",
        New {controller = "Home", action = "About", id = UrlParameter.Optional}
        );

You should put more specific routes at the top. Add catch all route at the end. Try 

  routes.MapRoute(
        "AboutRoute",
        "About",
        New {controller = "Home", action = "About"}
        );

   routes.MapRoute(
        "NewRoute",
        "{country}/{language}",
        new { controller = "Home", action = "Country" }
        );

   routes.MapRoute(
        "CatchAll",
        "{*path}",
        new { controller = "Home", action = "Index" }
        );
