how do i finish?
@darin anywayyou can change Diyarbakir to Batman or Van?
They are different cities..I’m not seeing where Diyarbakir is called Van/Batman?
Sweden and Finland need to be added
they aren’t officially in for a while, have merely applied for membership
How do you spell the name of the city in the Azores?
The city is Ponta Delgada, there’s no other name for it. But the city is nowhere near 108k so I think the quiz is pointing to some other city.
Ponta Delgada is on Madeira. That’s Funchal in the Azores.
You’ve swapped both archipelago’s capitals. I’ve also made a mistake assuming the marker was really in the Azores. As a Portuguese shame on me. lol Ok… the Azores are not featured in this quiz as its largest city, Ponta Delgada, falls short of 50k which I think is the threshold for this quiz. The city Ovamiat is questioning is indeed Funchal and it’s located in the Madeira Island.
Surprised that The Bahamas aren’t in NATO!
Also, isn’t Honolulu north of 23.5 North latitude?
Actually no, Honolulu is 21.3 North, a bit south of the Tropic of Cancer.
In fact, an attack on Hawaii wouldn’t activate Article 5… which is dumb as an attack on Hawaii led to the creation of NATO in the first place!
this conversation has some next level response time
1 1/2% of the United States population is NOT covered by the protection provided by Article Five: Both Hawaii (1.5 million) and Puerto Rico (3.5 million plus) are South of 23.5 degrees North Latitude. That’s over 5 million Americans who aren’t protected by Article Five.
THIS MUST CHANGE.
As it stands, Putin could attack Honolulu or San Juan and not worry about the rest of NATO*.
* — Except for the UK, in the case of San Juan, as the British Virgin Islands are nearby.
Great quiz… Combines knowledge of Europe and US with my complete ignorance of Canada ans turkey 🙂
