I was going to link it to John Buchan if I was charged with coming up with the title for Phoenix 39.

Re the Queen: How about The Falkland Islands - (is that even a country?)

Hmmmmmmm.

I'll guess Nigeria.

Though Falkland Islands sounds good. But that's probably cos I like islands.

UP. Am I correct in saying that you know the land size of every country in the world??

As for my guess, I'm going for ... Cameroon, which I don't even know if they're in the Commonwealth.

yep to the nearest square micrometre only when i'm being chased by the rozzers though. is bahrain not in africa then

ops:, you know my geography is hopeless. also thank you YE for reminding me; it occurs to me that i forgot to put in the standard guess which will never do. so here goes:

yemen

and i will certainly not let them walk all over me.

erm, angola?
