Diving headfirst into a sea of guesses, we have Pakistan, Paraguay, Poland, the Philippines, and Papua New Guinea.
Aaaaaaah!
1. Pakistan
2. Paraguay
3. Poland
4. Polynesia
5. Panama can't be right...some Peninsula? Pribiloff Islands? Pyloric stenosis? Phooey.
It would have been MORE Perfect if you had alphabetized the quiz answers, she sniped.
1 Bangladesh
2 Bolivia
3 Poland.... oh wait. Scracth those
1. uhhhh uhhhhh it's gotta be near India with the Punjab and all...Pakistan?
2. Paraguay
3. Poland
4. Philippines
5. uhhhh... Papau New Guinea? Is that an island country?
Yay! I'm here in time to play on the correct day.
1. Pakistan
2. Paraguay
3. Poland
4. Philippines
5. Papua New Guinea
Please tell us about the numbers on the map in #4.
1. Pakistan
2. Paraguay
3. Poland
4. Phillippines
5. Papua New Guinea
1. Pakistan
2. Paraguay
3. Poland
4. Phillippines
5. Papua New Guinea
HA! Take that, Monday quiz!
Pakistan, Paraguay, Poland, Phillipines, & Papua New Guinea
1. pakistan
2. paraguay
3. poland
4. philppines
5. hmmm, palau?
finally figuring that knowing the letter greatly helps with the quiz...
a cursory glance that fueled mild panic netted poland and possibly paraguay, and then i realized that the letter this week is 'p'. so guesses on the rest:
1. pakistan
2. paraguay
3. poland
4. phillipines
5. papau new guinea
i almost wanted to call a boycott on all future geography quizzes, but then calmed down.
Wait.
Papua is the capitol of New Guinea, right? How can it be "Name that Country" when Papua is just a city? I hope Papua, therefore, is a wrong answer!
...and I am not just saying that because I couldn't think up Philippine Islands for #4. I was struggling for any geographic P word (obviously) and ultimately just anything beginning with P.
Another grisly Performance....
I'm gonna have to recuse myself, having glanced at a to-do list left on the kitchen table this weekend and finding what no wife wants to find--clear evidence of geographical alliteration.
Pakistan
araguay
oland
hillippines
( sychadelic)
apua New Guinea
1. Pakistan
2. Paraguay
3. Ukraine
4. The Philippines
5. The Dominican Republic
1. Pakistan
2. Paraguay
3. Poland
4. Philippines

Woo hoo! We did it. Of course this just means he'll make the next one harder.
Snowgirl: I had Palau too, until I noticed the border across the middle of the main island. The divided-in-half island was my PNG clue.
Michael: can you please explain the Philippines number-y map.
Border across middle of main island? Was this visible to the aged eye?
