Honestly, there are two mistakes, you should include Honiara, capital of Solomon islands. secondly , the elevation of Lapaz,Bolivia is also above 2500m so you should accept both the answers.

Mike is just mistaken on the distinctions, that's all. Atomic bombs and hydrogen bombs are both nuclear weapons. No hydrogen bomb has ever been detonated in a war, though, thankfully.

Atomic bombs, of Hiroshima and Nagasaki infamy, just rely on nuclear fission - breaking apart of atoms - and are the first step on the way to hydrogen bombs. H-bombs are a combination of both fission and fusion and release many times more energy for much more explosive power. Both use nuclear reactions and both are classed as nuclear weapons.

Maybe you should reduce the time. I missed both Cambodia and Afghanistan with 2:30 left and got them by guessing random Asian countries.
