Here's the rules, I type in a word or phrase. You give me a small phrase (if a phrase) or a maximum of 5 words (if a word) in reply to my original statement. This will only work IF you do NOT use any reference material at all. Just the knowledge that is in your heads thanks. (Any Aussies, Canadians or Brits please do participate). One other thing, try not to look at other peoples answers, until AFTER you have posted.
Ok here goes.
Give me a (max) 5 words that you relate with Tunisia.

Okay, I'll answer.
Give me a (max) 5 words that you relate with Tunisia
An Island close to France
On what Peninsula is Vladivostock.
I know the general location of Vladivostock. I believe the peninsula in question is on the northeast side of Russia.
Who is Atal Behari Vajpayee?
Prime Minister of India. And it was Nawaz Sharif of Pakistan who was kicked out of power in a coup (for those who may get the two confused. Or did I get myself confused?)
What is the Marinaras Trench?
The lowest point on earth. In plain english, it is the lowest trench (a dip in the earth) in the oceans. Located somewhere in the Pacific.
What is Kilamanjaro?
Rings a bell, but gotta think about it.

Tunisia: Africa, Lybia (borders, of course), Mediteranian, small, Tunis
No clue about Mesjids or the Kunlun Shan.
Vladivostok: I'm not sure if it's a peninsula, but it's in the general area known as Manchuria. (More than five words. Sue me.)
S.A.: It's in Chile, I think.
Volcano: No clue here. I'd guess that it's probably the same mountain.
No idea who Atal Behari Vajpayee is.
The Marianas trench is the deepest spot in the Pacific (or anywhere else).
Kilamanjaro is the tallest mountain in Africa. Extinct volcano, I believe.
Knocking back a few coldies would seem to be some sort of bar lingo, and I don't spend much time in bars (for an obvious reason). I'd guess it means to drink beer or some other alcoholic beverage.
I believe they speak Spanish in Tierra del Fuego.
No clue about the last one.

Truth is that most United Statesians no very little about their own history let alone the rest of the world. Read this if you think otherwise.

quote:
What is the Marinaras Trench?
Marinaras?!? Hmmm... It's a deep ocean trench filled with a red Italian sauce usually found on pasta. If you're talking about the Marianas trench, however, it's the deepest underwater crevasse in the world, and it's located south of japan but (I think) north of the Phillipines.
What is Kilamanjaro?
I believe it is the tallest peak on the African continent. Precisely where in Africa escapes me. That's why I own reference books.[/i]
