OK I'll admit this is a bit of a toughie, so here is a clue:
Of the 3 countries on that map, 2 of them are among the 5 largest countries in the world.
I'll say China, North Korea and Russia.
Actually are they all real countries or is the middle one an enclave or something?
Hey you got it!Quote:

China appears to own a river and its banks that separate the other 2 countries.
I found this on Google Earth while cruising along the N/S Korean border.
I spend a lot of time on wikimapia and had a look at this part of the world before. Lot's of time wasting fun, especialy when bored at work! The comment about 2 of the worlds largest countries was the clincher.
OK, question, I'm an island with which the following are associated, English county, penal settlement, bounty. Who am I.
Easter?
Finally been able to get back in!Quote:

Norfolk Island?
Yes, we have a winner! Descendants of the Bounty moved to Norfolk Island.Quote:

"On 8 June 1856, the next settlement began on Norfolk Island. These were the descendants of Tahitians and the Bounty mutineers, resettled from the Pitcairn Islands, which had become too small for their growing population. The British government had permitted the transfer of the Pitcairners to Norfolk, which was thus established as a colony separate from New South Wales but under the administration of that colony's governor. They left Pitcairn Islands on 3 May 1856 and arrived with 194 persons on 8 June.
The Pitcairners occupied many of the buildings remaining from the penal settlements, and gradually established their traditional farming and whaling industries on the island. Although some families decided to return to Pitcairn in 1858 and 1863, the island's population continued to slowly grow as the island accepted settlers, often arriving with whaling fleets."
Your go.
Epic guess! :D
Does mean I haven't prepared a Q :(
I'll step back and let someone else jump in.
