    What? :confused:

    If.someone.mentions.Hawaii.make.sure.to.point.out.it.is.covered.by.the.united.states.of.america.and.not.a.sperate.country.just.like.england.wales.and.northern.ireland.

    Also, would you like me to say 'Greece' instead of Crete? How anal are you getting with this?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,480 ✭✭✭wexie


    What? :confused:

    A country isn't necessarily always a sovereign state.

    Wales is a country but not a sovereign state. Same goes for Greenland and a whole range of other places.

    And as always, by "country" we mean a sovereign state that is a member of the UN in its own right...

    Of the countries still not ticked off the OP:-

    - Brazil
    - Kenya
    - Laos (Great country)
    - Saudi Arabia
    - South Korea

    I'd have added Taiwan to the list but was denied access to a flight I had a ticket for due to a rare election clashing with my travel date which meant returning nationals wishing to vote got preference. I never did get to visit Taiwan :-(

    I think I've been to about 45 countries in total (business and personal travel) over the last 25 years including living in SE Asia for a few years in the early 00's but the above are the only ones not already ticked off the list.

    Travel is a massive privilege and something I encourage everyone I know to do. There's a very big and very interesting world out there!!
