Is that Dubrovnik? Took me ages to get it, and I was there only six months ago, duh

I was trying to figure out why the hell Austria had a gold statue of Mark Twain playing the fiddle. Turns out that is Johann Strauss

Argentina is a pretty horse-y place, with its wide open Pampas and Patagonian steppe, not to mention its gaucho culture. In fact Argentina has considerably more horses than Mongolia - 3.65 million to 2.03 million. Which actually works out to the same horse population density for both - 1.3 horses per square kilometre. For the record the US has by far the world's largest horse population at more than 9 million.

Chile has pampa too, and there is nothing to distinguish THAT pampa from an un-angertinian one, so understandable.

Chile doesn't have pampas. You're probably thinking of Patagonia, but even then the chilean and argentinian parts are very different (other than the Andes). If you're thinking of wide open plains (the patagonian steppes), Chile's side doesn't have any, and has much more vegetation.

But that mountain backdrop of Fitzroy - also the Patagonia brand logo - is pretty unmistakable to climbing fans...

Are you not accepting Italy for #5? There's a serious proportion of that photo in Italy :-)

Hate to admit it but good point. The picture is definitely FROM the right country. Is there a way to blur most of the Italian part?

It sure looks like Torres del Paine in Chile, but I don't know. Either way, it's a different point than Vatican City/Italy.

It's in fact El Chaltén, also known as Fitz Roy. It does resemble Torres del Paine, though.

The notable part of the photo is in Vatican City. Just because it happens to contain a bit of Italy as well doesn't make that a good answer.

Or fortunately, depending on your point of view. As of right now, Catalonia is most certainly part of Spain.

Yes it is. They had no right to secede and carried out a non-binding, illegal referendum.

Of course not. It's much better to resort to violence as 90% of the countries that are independent today have done [/sarcasm]

Three years later... I'm glad that the debate over Catalonia has calmed down a bit.

If Catalonian secession were allowed, then would other wealthy areas also secede? Can any group of people unilaterally vote to leave a country? What's the minimum number of people necessary? These questions have no good answers.

The episode also showed to me how easy it is to stir up animosity between different cultural groups. If you're on team orange, and people want you to hate team blue, you need to take a step back and think about WHY this is happening. Who benefits?

Really not a fan of this quiz. I was able to get maybe four from actually knowing where they were, and spent the rest of the time typing every country in roughly the right region. It quickly became a test of how quickly I could recall and type every country in Europe.

Taiwan is the island. The name of the country is Republic of China. I don't think he wanted to say, that the Republic of China is part of the People's Republic of China...
