There's one more.
Typical. ermmmm......
Bratislava - Slovakia
Right. Your Q Stevie....
On a similar thread.....
Without Google again.
There are 19 self governing nations in the world beginning with the letter B.
17 of these fully independent Countries and 2 are self governing British territories but both are to all intents and purposes countries.
So can you name the 17 official nations beginning with B coupled with 2 British Territories?
Get thinking :p
Bolivia, Brazil, Barbados, Bermuda, Bhutan, Burma( if it counts), Bulgaria, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia, Botswana, Benin, Burkina Faso,Bangladesh, Brunei, Burundi.
I need one more but I don't know it.
The total is 19 I'm afraid. 17 Countries and 2 British Territories.
You have 1 of the Territories correct. Bermuda.
You have 14 Countries correct (Burma = Myanmar I'm afraid)
So you have 15 of the 19.
I will give you one clue. One of the Countries is a Two worded name, but the first word is not the one beginning with B.
+Bahamas
+Belize
Burundi (its hard to keep track of what gadjo already said ...aargh...its last on her list)
steve, don't tell me that is Great Britain? ;)
I guess a few of the remaining ones are some of the Pacific/Carib islands?
Bahamas?
edit: while I was typing this (reading that 14 list and again going through my mental globe!!!!!) gadjo ninjaed me again!
No. Not including Britain.
Gadjo. You now have 17 of 19.
Countries:
The Bahamas, Bangladesh, Barbados, Belarus, Belgium, Belize, Benin, Bhutan, Bolivia, Bosnia & H, Botswana, Brazil, Brunei, Bulgaria, Burkina Faso, Burundi & ???
British Territories (I am not including British Antarctic or Indian Ocean Territories)
Bermuda & ???
One of each left to get. Who can get those last two. :)
Guinea Bissau
Bora Bora
Barbuda

The other British Territory is a bit tougher. You were along the right lines with your last guess though.
This is the result of learning geography on different schools..... :angryfire
I think I can see which countries are is missing now. One is a F1 country and the other a very "female" country.
Good God.....But Bahrain was on my list and I forgot to tyoe it.....
Do you mean Antigua and Barbuda?Quote:

Your in the correct Region.
The last is a bit tougher. You are in the right area of the globe though. It has an American Cousin ;)
British Virgin Islands :uhoh: :confused: :( :rolleyes: :angryfire :mad: :o :erm: ;( :crazy: ;( :angryfire :erm: :hmh:

You did well. 19 states to remember is tough. Especially some that are not well known.
OK Gadjo, I have one.
Which two capital cities are furthest apart?
Good one. I assume they are going to be opposite sides on the globe and far north and far south.
hmmmm. Wellington and Reykjavic?
Maybe both on the equator - Panama and Singapore?
Good idea actually.Quote:

hmmmmm....
Don't know if I am allowed 2 guesses at once
Wellington and London?
Canberra and London?
Nope those are also wrong and not as close as your previous answer.
Also you have to think three dimensional and not two dimensional the earth is not flat but spheric.
I've looked at a map - so I'm sitting back and watching things pan out :cool:
This Q was asked before but I forgot the answer (how good is my memory? :confused:)
Can't believe this. I found the old thread, I found the right answer but I'm too dumb to understand it .
Well New Zealand and Spain are antipodal opposites, so I would suggest that it will be Wellington and Madrid
