Well I worded it in the way that I did because I didn't want to confuse people and I didn't want to say it was an island. BTW French Guyana is almost 1,000 miles from Martinique.Quote:

Ok! :) Now, it's been 20 years since the break-up of Yugoslavia. Let's see how well we can identify the new republics on the map.

Please put a country name to each number.
NB! 5 and 5b are one country.

And 5a is of course Kosovo, which I'm sure you know, but forgot to mention.
Well done Lousada, I'll count that as a correct answer. :up:
Your turn.
In 1960 there was a quadripoint in Lake Chad between Cameroon, Nigeria, Chad and a remaining British Colony. A quadripoint is where 4 borders meet in a single point.
In modern history (since the 19th century) there has been one other quadripoint (that was not disputed). The question is, where was it located? The question is specifically about countries.
Wild guess:
Eastern Europe, including:
Austria
Croatia
Italy
Slovenia
:?:
But your Q is posted in past tense so perhaps the quadripoint you're after no longer exists today: :s
The only one I can think of is at the borders of Zambia, Botswana, Namibia, and Zimbabwe, but that is disputed
