List corrected due to simulpost.

I’ve been there too. And I recently met someone from there. I also met someone recently from Burkina Faso.

What about East Germany (1985) - does that count?

(Took out Seychelles)

Hmmm. I hardly ever get out of the country. I don’t leave for Burkina Faso until June 18, but I’m sure someone will remove it from the list before I leave. (I already have my tickets and my visa, does that count?)

Well, I haven’t been to them, but you can take off Martinique and Montserrat because by no stretch of the imagination are they countries. Martinique is just as much a part of France as Paris is, legally speaking, and Montserrat is a UK overseas territory.

Likewise a lot of other non-countries that people snuck onto the list, like Scotland, Gibraltar, French Guiana and Tahiti. (Tahiti??)

Oh and you were missing Tuvalu, Vanuatu, East Timor and Palau. Edited list below (sorry, it’s getting bigger again…)

Sorry, didn’t mean to come across un-chilled. Just thought the idea was to list the countries. I’m pretty amazed how many places we have been as a group. Including random islands like Montserrat just dilutes it a bit. IMHO :wink:

I work for the Caribbean Epidemiology Centre, and we say that we “serve 21 member countries.” Montserrat is one of them. It may depend on how you define country vs nation vs republic, etc.

I know some Montserratians who would not like to hear their island called “random.” It’s actually a fascinating place. Granted most natives live elsewhere now, as the volcano wiped out a good deal of the habitable part of the island. Population now stands at 4500.

Antigua

Barbados Belize

Costa Rica

Dominica

France

Gibraltar

Grenada

Guatemala

Guyana, where is Guyana? I didn’t see it on the list.

Honduras

Indonesia

Jamaica

Malaysia

Martinique

Mexico

Montserrat

Nevis (as in “St. Kitts and Nevis”?

Puerto Rico

Singapore

Spain

St Kitts (see “Nevis” above - part of same country)

St Lucia

St Vincent (and the Grenadines)

Thailand

Trinidad and Tobago (ohh, how I love up me country)

United Kingdom

United States of America

Hey if Guyana is on the list, I can cross it off. I spent some time in Georgetown back in 93. I didn’t see it on the list when I did my previous post, so I assumed some other Doper had already been there.

Wait, JillGat are you posting countries you’ve been to, or what’s remaining on the list?

On preview, it looks like UncleBill was also listing countries he’s been to rather than removing them from the list.

It looks like MrDibble’s list is the most current.

Remove the countries you’ve been to, then repost the new (smaller) list.

After checking with the CIA factbook, I did indeed miss a whole bunch of countries. This is their complete list (note that it includes a bunch o’places which aren’t independant in any meanigful sense)
