Are there any countries in the world we haven’t been to? I’ve made a list of (hopefully) every country. If there is a country which you have visited (or are currently in, of course), then all you have to do is cut edit and paste until the last country vanishes.

You’re missing quite a few countries on your original list. Laos, South Korea, and North Korea among them. (I would have removed those three anyways, but there could be others.)

Where did you get the list? You also miss French Guiana and Surinam. (I’ve been in the latter country only).

An apparently more complete list is [the travel warnings](http://travel.state.gov/travel_warnings.html) from the US State Department.

Cool thread idea, though.

Zaire is now known as the Democratic Republic of the Congo-take it off the list cause I live there now and suffering from cabin fever because of the civil unrest in Kinshasa. That means that I have lots of time to answer your question.

You can take out:  
Bahamas
