NAME THAT COUNTRY! (a game) (3)
CORRECTION!!! I DON’T KNOW HOW I MISSED THIS! IT WAS IMJUSTPEACHY WHO WON THE UKRAINE VERSION OF THIS GAME!
MY MISTAKE!
Congratulations to Weissdorn Imjustpeachy who was the first to reply with a correct answer in last week’s
NAME THAT COUNTRY CHALLENGE!
The winning response was
The Ukraine
Now, on to the next challenge!
Can you figure out from what country all these pictures come?
Much of this place looks like this…
But, of course, that picture doesn’t tell you much, now does it?
Except that we can rule out the United Kingdom.
I’m not sure if these “white faced” camels are specifically indigenous to this country,
but I had never seen a dromedary like this guy…
Sand… camels… Okay, rule out Iceland this week too. Don’t these people have cities? Sure they do!
Here’s a picture of the largest city’s “Central District”…
Rule out Hong Kong. Man, can’t imagine the nightlife there is all that great.
Maybe this guy will turn things around. He’s the current president.
What’s he whispering here?
I guess the sign below is to remind people who is the boss and perhaps to announce the construction of some new high rise buildings. Then again, if they need extra supports with high-tech broken cinder blocks to hold up THE SIGN, I’m not sure I’d feel safe living in one of their high rises.
He recently beat out this contender in a somewhat suspicious election. You’ll notice these people have various pigmentations to their skin… what’s that guy all the way over on the left doing there?
I dunno. Something fishy is going on.
Look! An uncharted desert isle! I can’t imagine the crew of the Minnow doing so well on this piece of land.
People have lived here for a long time.
And the current population has some interesting cultural pecularities. For example, when mixing this drink, you’ve got to pour one part into the other from WAY up there… Wow! How does she do it?
Plus-sized women are absolutely revered in this country. Like most places that look like this, it is a male dominated society, and having a fat wife is a sign that not only do you care well for her, but that you’re prosperous. It’s a bit of a social problem as girls are forced fed and sent to fat camps… to GET fat in order to make themselves more appealing.
So don’t run or fly away before making a guess!
NAME THAT COUNTRY!
Chad?
Islamic Republic of Mauritania? :entertained:
You did damn good Joko. I can’t find these pictures anywhere. LOL
Found them. Damn I was wrong.
Is it Uganda?
Pushcar, India?
Sudan?
djourBooty…
I am not sure of how to spell it.
Since I have no idea what country this is, I’m forced to take a wild guess: Liberia.
Joko, repeat winners should be barred. LOL
I was going to say Mauritania, but others said that, and it won them no praise, whereas the person who guessed Uganda was told they made a good guess…which makes me think this is East Africa. And East Africa makes me think Sudan. So my guess is “Sudan.”
Oh, and my introductory blog post is up & running, FYI.
I am going to have one more go – if its not Uganda, then how about the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (used to be called the Western Sahara)
How was Weissdorn the first one? My comment was #2. DO you have me blocked so you can’t see me?? LOL
Congratulations Just Peachy!

I am confused. Oh congrats to IMpeachy btw! The obvious answer to this one, which I thought of, but Dustup already guessed straight away, is Mauritania, because of the female fattening thing. But you appear to be saying it is not the right answer? So are we still supposed to be guessing the answer to this one Joko?
I have no idea. Do I get a prize for admitting that?
Datsup needs to be blocked from future contests. Two wins is enough. LOL
love your blogs so fun!
Definitely Japan. I went to school in the number one USA.
