Re: How Good Is Your Geographic? [5]
When you said GB was a good answer, I thought of Gibraltar.
Then though I thought maybe it was a trick and the fact we are known as Great Britain & Northern Ireland, so maybe its Northern Ireland or Rep Ireland?I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

Nope not Gibraltar, not NI or Rep Ireland.
I don't want to say why GB was a good guess since I might use that as a question later on....Funny how ev'rything was roses when we held on to the guns...

I know some of the Polish provinces have blue and yellow arms, probably due to the fact that they were invaded and administered by Sweden 700-1000 years ago

Not Poland but you are getting closer.
