51 YEMEN

208 TURKS AND CAICOS ISLANDS

Yeah man, who's gonna win?

Winner: Turks and Caicos Islands... the islands are getting a lot of love as of late.

 

[Mr Gor]

For me it's just hard to go against all these islands, especially when matched up with built up, dusty looking places like Yemen.

Turks and Caicos Islands for me.

 

[Gibbsy]

Yeah Turks & Caicos for me too, all these islands just look so beautiful

 

[muesli]

Turks and caicos islands

 

[TheDoctor11]

Yeahman, just for the sake of that bad joke

 

[estibador]

Yemen doesn't really seem to have much going for it. The poor bastards don't even have any oil compared to the rest of the Arab world.

T&CI looks nice, as you'd expect from beach islands in the Caribbean. They get my vote.

Turks and Caicos Islands

Beach --> Desert

Ps: As already mentioned this is a great thread.

52 MOZAMBIQUE

207 FAROE ISLANDS

African Streak vs. Island Love

Winner: Mozambique.... long live them whales.

 

[TheDoctor11]

Mozambique

 

[Deledinho]

Faroe Islands, just for this:

In an interview in Faroese radio station Rás2 (Channel2), Mitten said something along the lines of "that the absolutely most horrific thing he had witnessed in the Tórshavn derby was when one B36 supporter had said that HB-player Jákup á Borg was no good".

 

[The Passenger]

gun on flag = mozambique all the way.

and for my drunken ramblings one anzac day when i called up the (now ex) misses and our convo ended with me slurring (allegedly - i don't remember it) - "you know what... i think we should just pack up and go to mozambique"

 

[Gibbsy]

Mozambique

 

[estibador]

Faroe Islands - I've always thought there was something very cool about Nordic countries.

 

[Catfish Alley]

Faroe Islands. Watched a documentary on the place once and it looks really intreresting.

 

[Righteo]

Faroe Islands FTW, they even have their own language and the viking culture> shitty African nation most likely overrun with drug cartels and corrupt officials.

A rifle with bayonet and a hoe aren't exactly inspiring symbols to have on a flag either tbh.

 

[Mr Gor]

Mozambique, mainly cos of the book-rifle-hoe combination

Faroe Islands apparently murder the shit out of whales though. Screw them.

53 IVORY COAST

V

206 SAINT KITTS AND NEVIS

Streak v Islands, again!

Winner: Ivory Coast... Africa is unbeatable!

 

[Deledinho]

Eboue is Ivorian. Need I say any more?

 

[estibador]

But so is Didier Drogba - so St Kitts for me.

 

[Gibbsy]

Ivory Coast, great footballing nation with lots of talent - Eboue, Drogba, Kalou and both Toure's.

 

[TheDoctor11]

St Kitts

 

[Catfish Alley]

Why did Mozambique win? Thought the replies were pretty even. As for the whaling in the Faroe Islands - it's regulated and non-commercial. It doesn't look pretty but the people do it for food.

This is kind of a tough one. I'll go Ivory Coast just because it seems a bit more interesting.

 

[Mr Gor]

Why did Mozambique win? Thought the replies were pretty even.

If the votes are even then the higher seeded team wins.

As tempting as these islands are (like always), I have to go with Ivory Coast

54 ROMANIA

205 MARSHALL ISLANDS

Europe v Islands
