It's simple some tells about a some country and you must tell as much correct facts about it as you know withount useing the wikipedia (other sources are allowed).
And the one with the most correct facts gets to chose next.
O and thers a special rule for thoes in the US they can take each state as its own entaty, the same rule can go for the UK and other simular Countarys.
Then I'll start.
All the facts about Croatia, on my tabel now, I wana see legs and asses of the facts, come on Quicker

Nope couse each state has its own unique historic evants and geografic landmarks and its own monuments.
I made this rule becouse of Puert Rico it's US controled but has its own governmant, so you can say that it's a countary within a countary.

Nice one most people who aren't Croats or near us don't even know that we exist and if they do know that we exist they only know for the turist atractions never the nat. curancy.
I guess most people don't know about Croatia so I'll help a bit.

So do most provinces in the Netherlands, or the states of Germany. So that's not really an argument.

Then what about British territories like Gibraltar or formerly Hong Kong? Or the Netherlands antilles?

Yes, it's a separate country and yes, it's the smallest country in the world. It's about the size of three city blocks. It's also the only country which is entirely surrounded by a city. It's also the only modern country which has Latin as an official language.

Without looking up anything, I believe that Croatia:
-Is adjacent to Serbia and Bosnia-Herzegovina in eastern Europe
-Used to be part of Yugoslavia
-Used to be under a communist government
-Is pronounced something like "Krusha" in French, judging from the way a French co-camper said it
-Has Serbo-Croatian as a major language, but by no means as predominantly as the U.K. has English
-Has faced a lot of ethnic violence in the last couple decades

FACTS ABOUT CROATIA
1) The Dead Kennedys song "Holiday in Cambodia" is not about Croatia.
2) Croatia exists.
3) If you consider the two "a"s in Croatia as being distinct, and you mix up all of the letters, the probability that each letter ends up in an incorrect position is approximately 37%.
4) As of Greneration 4, there is neither a Pokemon named Croatia nor a Pokemon whose species is "the Croatian Pokemon".
5) I've never been to Croatia.
6) It is illegal to walk down the streets of Croatia with a durian in one hand and the freshly-severed head of the Pope in the other.
7) Wikipedia has an article on Croatia.
SEVEN FACTS AND SEVEN > SIX so I win

Does that mean I got them all right? Cool.
One problem with this game, tho: It relies on an honor code. Someone might look up Croatia on Wikipedia and list a hundred facts.
