    What is the easternmost country in the European Union?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,807 ✭✭✭✭Orion


    I think that has to be Cyprus. But knowing my geography I could just as easily be wrong.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,250 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    No you're right. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,807 ✭✭✭✭Orion

    Maradona?

    Again, if I get this right I'd be shocked.

    Is this tournaments or matches?

    I recall a Mexican called Carbajal holding the tournament record at one time.

    Not Maradona.

    @Srameen: Appearances in World Cup tournament matches. Carbajal has the joint record for most World Cups along with the player I'm looking for.

    Clue - he's a European player who played in the 80s and 90s.

    Maldini?

    Just saying names at random, now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,250 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    No Newie haha. Correct starting letter though. (of surname that is)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 32,688 ✭✭✭✭ytpe2r5bxkn0c1


    Something Matthious?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,636 ✭✭✭feargale


    Matthias.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,250 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    Yep, Lothar Matthaus.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,636 ✭✭✭feargale


    Yep, Lothar Matthaus.

    It seems nobody got it absolutely right but Srameen was first in to get it half right. Away you go, Srameen

    Are they all inside a larger country?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,034 ✭✭✭garancafan


    All landlocked within another country.

    All have a head of state/head of government who is not elected by the populace/plebs/unwashed etc.
    Sort of monarchies, though some might quibble re. Andorra.

    Tonga is an island and Bahrain is situated on a bridged peninsula. (It was an island)

    Can't help with the actual answer :D

    No quibbles at all. They are monarchies. You're up.

    Name the only two "territories" outside of Ireland ( North and South ) that celebrate St. Patrick's Day as a public holiday.

    P.S. I say "territories" as opposed to places because there are a few small communities in the USA which do so. They don't count.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,551 ✭✭✭Rubecula


    Cracking question .... one I have no ideas on.

    Isle of Man maybe?
