Countries Closest to an Unknown Country A-Z #2
For each letter of the alphabet, name the countries closest to, well, an unknown country. You must find the name of the unknown country, along with the closest countries A to Z.
I usually see which "V" country is closest since the only outcomes are Venezuela, Vatican, Vietnam, and Vanuatu. Then you know what part of the world to guess :)
for me I look at the 'U's, I find there to be too many 'I's that are close together, like iran iraq india indonesia israel etc while there is at most 2 'U's per continent, I also agree with the 'V' idea, didn't think about that, only problem is africa and N. America
That was very strange. Once I figured it was europe, I got almost everything. But I missed the country itself and P! I tried everything but forgot those two!
It's 24km between Croatia and Austria across the narrow eastern part of Slovenia and 66km between Croatia and Albania across Montenegro from the southernmost point of Croatia to the closest Albanian point in the middle of Lake Skadar. So yeah there's a big mistake here.
I totally blanked out on North Macedonia. I'm still not used to the name change. "What country could possibly be closer than the Netherlands, Norway, and Niger?"
Clever concept, however, unless you have a clue as to the general location of the mystery country the time is insufficient to complete all the countries. If the initial guesses are on the wrong continent there is no way of completing this in the time allotted.
....was the only one left with 19 seconds ... i gave up..
and guess what listed on the "I" frame. ITALY! Now what is
up with that? hmmm... :)
Georgia is a long shot compared to both.
