Awesome that certain countries keep changing their place names insisting that it's so foreigners pronounce it "correctly" by using an irrational sequence of letters.

Why can't everybody copy the rational sequence of letters that make up the words of the written English language?

The Wikipedia article about the mangrove region contains the word “Sundarbans” 198 times, including the title, while the word “Sunderbans” occurs 20 times. It doesn't even mention the version with E as an alternative spelling. Is it a common misspelling or an accepted alternative?

I got both Syria and Saudi Arabia from guessing the belligerent Northern neighbor clue, and Sulawesi from guessing the orangutan clue.
