A little history/geography quiz

[Andre]

Hobart would have to be close, just south of Hobart is the southern most pub in the world. So maybe Australia and Alaska? Or Newzealand south Island and Finland Helsinki ?

Can I think aloud? How many go's do we get?

What? ..Yeah I know, Im like one of those pratts just pressing the buzzer continually.

New Zealand and Finland would be very, very close! Actually that was my guess too - I visited New Zealand back in 03, and I am pretty damn sure they billed the one in Invercargill as the southern-most in the world (South Island is an amazing place to travel btw, but Invercargill didnt have much, well anything, else to offer IIRC, so we ended up doing a tourist tour at McD) - however, a double check on wiki after asking the question, and apparently there is one even more south in Chile. Punta Arenas is apparently the answer for that one?

In case of north, it is indeed in Finland. However, the right answer is Rovaniemi. Very, very close to the Arctic circle btw, but I think the restaurant is located just south of it. My girlfriend is born and raised very close to the place, which is why I have been hanging around that neck of woods.

Also, many bonus points for funny answer and emoticons!

Name a country that is located entirely within another country. I only know of one. Name both countries. The Vatican does not count.

My guess would be Lichtenstien since its more or less just a city state

Welcome to the game. Good guess, but my research tells me Liechtenstein lies right on the border between Switzerland and Austria.

Luxembourg borders Belgium France and Germany

My research tells me there are only two such countries, called enclaves, in the world, besides The Vatican. Keep in mind that such a country must be entirely landlocked, it cannot border an ocean.

TM you are not that far away geographically from one of them. Monaco is not landlocked.
