Interesting coincidence: just after I posted this quiz, I saw this article saying Morocco has rejoined the African Union, 33 years after quitting the organisation in a sulk over the AU's decision to recognise Western Sahara (Morocco illegally invaded the country in 1975, and no country recognises Morocco's occupation).
