OK people, here comes quiz number three. As the last quiz was set on a Sunday and this one also happens to be starting on a Sunday, it seems a good idea to start them on Sundays.

I thought it might be an idea if I chose a subject for each quiz, so this one is based on world geography.

Some of these questions are going to involve you doing some research, but don't get too worried - it's all on Wikipedia. I suspect these questions may throw up some pedantic issues regarding what people consider a state or a country, but hey - you may learn something along the way!

1. Name a US state which starts with the letter M.
2. Name one of the states which comprise Australia.
3. Name a country which falls inside the timezone that is four hours ahead of UTC (UTC+04:00).
4. Name one of the sovereign states within the continent of Africa which does not have any of the colour green on their national flag.
5. Name the capital city of one of the countries which officially make up Central America.
6. Name a country which currently maintains an official claim on one of the eight territories of Antarctica.
7. Name a country which, between 2006 and present, has made a territorial claim in the Arctic.
8. Name a river in the world whose length exceeds 3000 miles.
9. Name an English county whose population exceeded 1,000,000 (1 million) according to the mid-year estimates for 2008 from the Office for National Statistics.
10. Name an OECD member country which joined the organisation after 1995.

Remember to PM me your answers - I'll close this one at 17.30 on Sunday the 20th of March 2011.

Don't forget to enter if you've forgotten. The closing date is Sunday, so hurry hurry!

Sunday is the 20th!! Your advertised closing date is Sunday 27th...

Why did I do that? What a spanner. I meant this Sunday!

Does anyone need an extra week?

But because you initially advertised the 27th, you should really let it run until then. That's how it's done in shops with prices

Whatever.

What he said.

27th please

You had a week last time and managed it. Why does everyone need a second week?

It ends this Sunday because that's what I intended. And Garion, you didn't even enter the last round and you haven't entered this one yet, so is it really that important to you?

You advertised it as being the 27th though so I thought I had longer to do it. I need time to think about it and I don't think i'll meet the deadline

OK, how about if I extend it to tomorrow night (Monday)?

Deal

OK, the new deadline is 17.30 on Monday the TWENTY-FIRST of March, 2011.

Anyone else, in the 18 minutes remaining?

Damn, I was going to enter this tomorrow, given the closing date was advertised as the 27th....
