Two general questions:
- Are North and South America two different continents for this game?
- Are members of the British Commonwealth all constitutional monarchies (Canada, Australia)?

So, now a real question:
Does the country have a coast at the atlantic ocean (or one of its side seas, such as Caribbean sea, Baltic Sea, Mediterranean Sea ...)

Ecthelion, I can reassure you, there was no country in the world which had its cultural and/or economic climax from 1933-1945.

Anyway, now we have a limited number of countries:
Iceland, Ireland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Germany, France, Portugal, Monaco, Italy, Kroatia, Macedonia (if you count it as independent), Albania, Greece, Romania, Bulgaria, Malta, perhaps Cyprus (if you count it as independent).
Those who play (of course not Wernazuma ), please correct if I'm wrong.


Bosnia is IIRC landlocked, Russia and Turkey on more than one continent and the rest are constitutional monarchies (Sweden, Norway, Denmark, England, Netherlands, Belgium, Spain), Finland is already excluded.

I think it's better to wait for the answers for Shadowstrike and IW, cause they'll give a lot of information.

IW or Wernazuma, please specify if you understand Iceland as existing in 1939 (it was clearly Danish, then, but it existed ...)

Macedonia is independent, yes, but it's not on the game, since it's landlocked.

I thought all the coastline from Italy to Albania was Croatian (with you information that Macedonia is landlocked ... Have no interest in learning things that change every other year). Ukraine - as you said it I remember there were discussions between Russia and Ukraine about (Russian access to) the harbour of Odessa.

Sorry, Monaco of course is a constitutional Monarchy ...

Bosnia does indeed have a coastline. A very small one, but it does touch the coast. Montenegro also touches the Adratic.

So, my list is boiled down to Iceland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Albania, Romania, Bulgaria, Malta, (Cyprus).

Is your country in the sphere of influence of the former Sovjet Union? (from my list, it is one of Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, and Bulgaria. AFAIK, Albania was communist but more Maoist.)

Adalbertus: This question is kinda vague? None of these countries ca be under soviet influence, as the SU doesn't exist anymore. The baltic states were even part of it, thus as nations they were never under influence of it. And I#m pretty sure that the SU had influence on Albania, even if both states weren't "best friends". Please ask a different question.

Sorry, I meant "was during the cold war", not "is". By which I mean belonged to the SU (such as the Baltic countries) or was likely to be invaded if they didn't do what the Sovjet Communist Party expected. So the formerly communist countries with the exception of Jugoslavia and Albania.

Wernazuma, I guess the "no" relates to the second question (i. e. the country is south of Austria.) Remain three countries, therefore I can ask:

Other than Albania?

without spoiling too much

If the "no" relates to the SU thing, I'd ask the same question.

P.S. For the next game, try to find different rules. Encouraging to collect "yes" answers is not a good idea.

I wandered off to your homepage.
I'm doing it too, but no website yet.

great! I've thought of a country. Starting asking.

(Note, same rules as always: yes/no questions only. first three questions are free. Subsequently, if you get a "no", you are out of the game. If you get a "yes", you are allowed to ask more. Whoever gets the country right gets to "host" the next round.)
