In this edition, we talk world facts.
Did you know that of the 195 countries in the world, the only one that has all five vowels in its name is Mozambique? Also, there are no rivers or coins in Saudi Arabia, no deserts in Lebanon and no capitol in Nauru. The only country named after a woman is Saint Lucia and the official national animal of Nepal is the cow. There are only 110 islands in the Thousand Islands. The country with the most camels is Australia. And while this has nothing to do with world facts, it is interesting: There really is a unit of measurement called a “buttload.” It’s approximately 491 liters (130 gallons) of wine or ale.
