Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Okay, here's the first sentence: "The sailor left the bad jib out in the rain." Now once you spot the country that is concealed in that sentence, pick out its capital city from the choices given.

Answer: Djibouti

DJIBOUTI is the country hidden in: "The sailor left the baD JIB OUT In the rain." The capital city of Djibouti is also called Djibouti.

Located in East Africa, Djibouti is a very small country that gained independence from France. Over three quarters of the country's population lives in the capital. One of the saltiest lakes in the world, Lake Assal is in Djibouti--it is even saltier than the Dead Sea.
2. Will a courtesan mar inoculations for the sick?

Answer: San Marino

SAN MARINO is the country hidden in "Will a courteSAN MAR INOculations for the sick?" As with the previous question, this seems to be a quiz of countries with eponymously named capitals, because its capital city is also San Marino.

San Marino is landlocked, within Italy, and it is the fifth smallest country in the world. It claims to be the oldest as well. Its capital city, San Marino fittingly is located on the top of Mount Titano. San Marino is one of the most densely populated countries in the world. Despite that fact, it is the only country in the world with more cars than people.
3. When I wear my mukluk rain enters through the seams.

Answer: Kiev

UKRAINE (my people!) is the country hidden in "When I wear my muklUK RAIN Enters through the seams." Kiev is the capital of Ukraine.

Ukraine is located in Eastern Europe between Russia and Poland, with the Black Sea to the south and Belarus to the north. Owing to its large agricultural industry, Ukraine was once known as the breadbasket of Europe. Somewhere on the internet, you've probably seen The Tunnel of Love in the Ukrainian town of Kleven--go ahead and look it up-- I'll wait here. Cool right? Surrounded by forest, those railroad tracks you see on the ground are for a private train that brings wood to a local factory. Intricately colored and designed Easter eggs are still a tradition carried on by Ukrainians the world over.
4. When constructing a prefab hut, a new hand saw is a must.

Answer: Thimphu

BHUTAN, located at the extreme east of the Himalayas is the hidden country in the sentence: "When constructing a prefaB HUT, A New hand saw is a must." Thimphu is its capital city.

There are 18 mountain peaks in Bhutan that rise above 7,000 meters. Most of the country's mountains haven't been surveyed so their respective heights haven't been reliably documented. Bhutan's highest peak is Gangkhar Puensum at 7,541 meters. It is the highest unclimbed peak in the world. In 1994, the Bhutan government banned climbing mountain peaks that were higher than 6000 meters.
5. After his plastic surgery, his cleft chin added a masculine look.

Answer: Beijing

CHINA, the "Sleeping Dragon" of the Far East is the hidden country in "After his plastic surgery, his cleft CHIN Added a masculine look." Beijing, which we used to call Peking is the capital of China. The most common surname in Beijing is Wang.

One out of five people on Earth lives in China; there are more English-speaking people in China then there are in England.

The Great Wall of China, one of the Seven Wonders of the World is over 13,000 miles long.
6. When I looked at my Timex I couldn't believe what time it was.

Answer: Mexico City

MEXICO, our neighbor to the south in the U.S. is the hidden country in "When I looked at my TiMEX I COuldn't believe what time it was." Mexico City is the capital of the country.

Mexico is almost three times the size of Texas, and is composed of a federal republic of 31 states. Spanish is the most commonly spoken language and Roman Catholicism is the most commonly practiced religion.
7. Single cotton garment bags are the best choice for storing your clothes.

Answer: Nuku'alofa

TONGA, in the South Pacific, is the country hiding out in "Single cotTON GArment bags are the best choice for storing your clothes." Nuku'alofa (meaning "abode of love" according to legend) is the capital.

This kingdom, about four times the size of Washington, D.C., is made up of 170 islands but only 52 are inhabited. Its population is a little over 100,000. The country converted Christianity around 1880.
8. When you look them in the eye men usually have more respect for folks.

Answer: Sanaa

YEMEN, the only republic in the Arabian peninsula, is the country we're looking for in the sentence "When you look them in the eYE MEN usually have more respect for folks." Sanaa is the capital of Yemen.

It was not until 1990 that North Yemen, a republic, and South Yemen, a communist state were united into one country. The population is about 27,470,000 and the county is about 527,968 square kilometers.
9. Of all the Gods of the sky with a leitmotiv, Anu at unusual times seems weak.

Answer: Port Vila

VANUATU, an island state in the Pacific Ocean, is the country of interest in the sentence "Of all the Gods of the sky with a leitmotiV, ANU AT Unusual times seems weak." Port Vila is its capital.

Spain had discovered the islands in 1606, and then Captain James Cook came upon them in 1768 and named them New Hebrides. The name Vanuatu was adopted in 1980, upon its independence--that name is derived from two local words meaning 'home' and 'stand' in their form of pidgin English known as Bislama.
10. At the Q&A, during every Q a tardy latecomer to the lecture disrupted attention.

Answer: Doha

QATAR, located in the Middle East in the Arabian Gulf, is the country of interest in the sentence, "At the Q&A, during every Q A TARdy latecomer to the lecture disrupted attention." Doha is Qatar's capital.

Qatar is the richest country on the planet with a per capita GDP of $127,600, ahead of second place Luxembourg's $104,003. This is greatly thanks to their having the world's third largest natural-gas and oil reserves. Qatar however is the most polluting country in the world per capita, in terms of emitting CO2. About 99% of the citizens (with men outnumbering women two to one) live in cities.
