I'm kind of annoyed that you didn't put any South American counntries here, because my Global Studies teacher made us memorize every one of them for a test... but anyway...
Mongolia Moldova Where did Madonna steal a child from? - oh yeah, Malawi. Macedonia Mauritania - which happens to be near Mali (Since you are on a "M" kick... Oh & Western Sahara is occupied by Morocco...
1, mongolia 2, moldova 3, malawi 4, macedonia 5, mauritania
fairly sure, unless I mistook montenegro for one of the european ones. or mali for mauritania. if not, once more your theme has saved me, for without it, i wouldn't even be able to guess accurately.
Mongolia, aka "Outer Mongolia". No doubt. Moldova... about 85% sure here. Malawi... 95% sure. Macedonia... 98% sure. Mauritania. 50% sure. I always get Mali and Mauritania backwards.
And among the many learned, witty, and smolderingly attractive contestents today, the ones going home with the MQXLV Exclaimation Point are Calico, Karin, DrSchnell, Chance, and mhwitt!
It's the 5th E.P. for mhwitt, the 6th for Karin, and the 7th for our erudite Cat. Chance and DrSchnell stay tied on the all-time leaderboard at 16 E.P.s apiece.
@Morgan: Tell your Global Studies teacher that it's time to raise the bar! Tell him that you need more knowledge to run with the Quiz, so you'd appreciate a quicker pace. Suggest that the class add an evening session for "daily doubles." Organize the class to agitate for Saturday classes.
@Karma: No. Moldova was a province of the '70s.
@Chance: Theme? Oh, that! Total coincidence.
@mhwitt: Not always you don't.
Thanks to all and sundry for taking the Quiz! And here's a shout-out to you lurkers, too! You guys are awesome!
