#43

My short-term memory has successfully stored African, Middle-Eastern, and Eastern European geography....added bonus - South Asian geography. I probably need to brush up on Central and South American, but I figure that it's somewhere in my brain from Spanish 1.

Finally got to use my colored pencils

On a side note, I read up on some African political history. I'm talking out of my league here, but sifting through the hundreds of coup d'etats and oppressive dictators, I feel that Africa needs more women in power. Based on the assumption that they are most likely NOT to suppress freedoms, kill people, etc. Liberia is a relatively stable political country with a woman president, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, and Rwanda's "success" story, which now has a majority of women serving their legislature.

Just saying...


EDIT: It's actually kind of awesome when reading or hearing about a country, and you actually freaking know where it is....especially with the world cup ;) .....nerd-alert!
