Question 15. R: ×10 Land Mine Question #1: Name a country in Africa that contains at least one vowel in the English language (I don't want to have to translate a bunch of clicking sounds)

Sadly, Jordan is not in Africa, so no picture of Queen Rania this round.

First, it should go without saying, but I'll say it any way. There are too many uniques here for a bonus. Only matches will matter. So who's steppin' on what?

The country I picked is the size of a scooby snack. I fear it will be a popular pick as such.

I avoided really obscure answers like Burkina Faso, the Gambia, Senegal, etc. Let's see if it worked.

No, but it ticks me off when incorrect answers are the sheepiest.

They were, but they dropped out in the late 50s. They rejoined partially in the mid-90s and I thought that's where things stood, but grundlepedia says they rejoined completely in April 2009.

I assume those aren't negative scores but positive?
