When I was in the Navy Trivia Quiz

Answer: Laos

Laos is located in southeast Asia, and is bordered by China, Burma, Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand. A mountainous country, only about four percent of the land is arable. Laos has a tropical monsoon climate, with a rainy season which lasts from May to October. Rice is the primary crop - with large yields for both domestic use and export. Laos exports large quantities of hydroelectric energy. Tourism has increased in recent years, with visitors enjoying various activities including backpacking in Muang Ngoi Neua and Vang Vieng, exploring the Plain of Jars region, and visiting the caves and waterfalls near Thakhek.

Answer: Mali

Mali is almost twice the size of the state of Texas, and is bordered by Mauritania, Senegal, Guinea, Côte d'Ivoire, Burkina Faso, Niger and Algeria. Divided into eight regions - each with a governor - Mali is further divided into cercles, then communes.
About 65% of Mali is desert or semi-desert, with savannahs in the south and plateaus in the north, and in the northeast hills predominate the landscape. There is also a delta area called the 'Macina' in central Mali, where the lakes and waterways flood during the wet season, providing irrigation to the various plant life and crops which grow there.
One of the poorest countries in the world, Mali's largest export is cotton, followed by rice, millet, corn, vegetables and tobacco.

Answer: Bhutan

Originally a group of warring fiefdoms, Bhutan was unified in the early 17th century. Located at the eastern edge of the Himalayas, Bhutan is mostly mountainous, although foothills, plains and an extensive river system combine to give the country a wide range of biodiversity and ecosystems.
Besides takins and sloth bears, golden langurs, flying squirrels, Indian leopards and barking deer are just a small part of Bhutan's fauna.
Bhutan's cultural heritage is largely based on Buddhist traditions. Rice, buckwheat and maize are the staples of Bhutanese cuisine, along with pork, yak and chicken.
With the 'Tobacco Act of 2010', Bhutan became the first country to ban the sale of tobacco.

Answer: Austria

Located within the alpine region, Austria is a very mountainous country. The Danube flows through Austria, and while much of the country is not amenable to habitation, parts of the Danube Valley are well-suited - agriculturally and climatically - to settlement. Alpine skiing is a huge draw in Austria, and tourism in general is a vital part of the economy.

Some of the more popular tourist destinations are Salzburg, Vienna and Innsbruck. The Vienna Boys' Choir, demonstrations of folk dancing and yodeling, cathedrals and palaces, wine pubs and outdoor markets are just a few of the sights and activities that can be enjoyed when visiting Austria.

Answer: Lesotho

Lesotho is an enclave located within the Republic of South Africa. The terrain is largely mountainous, and the country can be roughly divided into three sections - highlands, foothills and lowlands (although with Lesotho's high elevations, 'lowlands' is a bit of a misnomer). Divided into ten administrative districts, each district has a capital which is called a 'camptown', and each district is then divided into constituencies.
While water is Lesotho's most important economic resource, the country also has a small, but viable, diamond industry.

Answer: Switzerland

Switzerland - which is actually the Swiss Confederation - is bordered by Germany, France, Italy, Austria and Liechtenstein. The country has a long history of political neutrality, and has been involved in numerous peacekeeping operations throughout the years.
A large number of international institutions are based in Switzerland, and agencies such as the World Health Organization and World Trade Organization are hosted by the Swiss Confederation.
Switzerland's geography - and climate - is quite diverse, due to the extremes of land formations, from the Alps to valleys and hills, but there is very little actual 'flat' land. The Swiss Plateau, located north of the Alps, is home to the majority of Switzerland's largest cities.

Answer: Rwanda

Located just south of the Equator, Rwanda is a country of both mountains and plains, and boasts a large number of lakes. The largest lake - Lake Kivu - is one of the twenty deepest lakes in the world. With few natural resources, the country's economy is based most heavily on subsistence agriculture. Coffee and tea are the two main exports.

The country boasts over 700 species of birds, and more than 180 species of mammals, including Senegal bushbabies, giant pangolins and African elephants.

Answer: Armenia

Armenia, formerly a republic of the Soviet Union, is a mountainous country in Eurasia. There are few forests, and less than 20% of the land is arable. Wheat and barley are the two main crops, although with irrigation, figs, pomegranates and olives are also cultivated.
Divided into ten provinces (marzer), Armenia is a presidential republic. Mount Ararat, the biblical resting place of Noah's ark, is now a part of Turkey, but it is still the national symbol of the Republic of Armenia.

Answer: Bolivia

Located in central South America, Bolivia is bordered by Peru, Chile, Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil. More rural than urban, the country has a mixed terrain, including the Andes in the southwest, a highland plateau, hills and lowland plains in the Amazon Basin. Shared with Peru, Lake Titicaca is South America's highest lake, (12,500 feet above sea level). Thanks to the diversity of the geography and climate, Bolivia has a huge variety of organisms and ecosystems. Bolivia is home to more than 1,400 species of birds, almost 400 mammals, 1,200 species of ferns and over 3,000 species of plants with medicinal uses or properties.

Answer: Belarus

Bordered by Russia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and Ukraine, Belarus is comparable in size to the state of Kansas, or the United Kingdom. Approximately 40% of the land is forested, and the Pripyat and Dnieper Rivers are just two of the many waterways that cross the country. About a fifth of Belarus was affected by 1986's Chernobyl nuclear disaster, and there are ongoing efforts by the United Nations and other organizations to address the issue.
