How Good Is Your Geography?? [3]

Ah, quit yer bumping!
I honestly don't have the time right now to research a Q, so unless Gruppo has one ready why doesn't somebody else have a go :)

Okay. Easy one.

What two countries inhabit the island of Hispaniola?

Haiti and Dominican Republic

Yeh, I thought it was easy.

Dam, I was gonna answer that one.

OK, I got a good geographic question (well, sorta history, but anyhoo....)

The United States was the first independent nation in the Western Hemisphere, on July 4, 1776. What was the second and when?

It should be Mark in Oshawa's turn to give a question.

To yours, I'll guess Paraguay in 1811.

Close but a bit off.

BUMP!

I have no question I can offer up and supply an answer to before I go back out on the highway again....so I will defer and let Brent go with his question. My guess would be Brazil.....

Colombia (or Gran Colombia) ? same year?
