That's like Googling for "a country in Europe" and coming up with Switzerland as your answer.
Sorry, it was a clarification -- it was late when I sent my PM! -- and since I clarified it I went with an asterisk.

No idea if my answer is correct on this one, but I thank Matthew Broderick for the possibility.

Remember when I said we were done with the non-uniques? I lied. 12 of us went with Antietam

Re: Politics Sheep: 4th Term

Thank you, Mr. Broderick. At least I made the board.

I thought Getty's Burg was too obvious.

Re: Politics Sheep: 4th Term

This is the question I initially tried google to no avail. So I went with what I hope is a Monopoly answer.

I totally forogt about a few of these. When I was a little kid I was obsessed with the Civil War. 1 million beers later I do not know why I can't remember anymore.

I could only come up with one (and there are a few especially one happening now - I think).

Re: Politics Sheep: 4th Term

I think that's debatable. But now I know why I couldn't remember what I put.

If the Vatican can be a country, I think Neverland Ranch should count too.

Re: Politics Sheep: 4th Term

Curious - were there any battles where one person gave the Union name and someone else gave the Confederate one?
