As I said few days or a week ago, this will some kind of puzzle. Yes, YOU need to think, search and write your version in comments, where I live.
There are 10 different facts about my country. Every of them ARE true.
OK, lets go to prizes
First, who answer correct, will receive 50 Q7 tanks. Next 10 will receive 10 Q7 tanks each.
Rules are simple - answer correct, then wait my next article, where will be answers. I will not say, if your answer is correct or not.
For how long you can guess? Until my next article (hope it will be in monday or tuesday).
And these are 10 facts
Some say, my country some years ago became a NATO country.
Some say, we have 4 neighbour countries.
Sorry, but we don't have any islands on open waters, but we have coast line.
Some say, that population in my country is smaller than in some cities, for example in Sydney or Melbourne lives more people than here, where I live.
Some say, that my contry is smaller than Tasmania(!!) Some think Tasmania is small, but my country is even smaller!
Some say, that we have lots of forests and lakes and some meadows.
Some say, that we have most beatifull ladies
Some say, our longest river (which flows only in my country) is shorter than road between Sydney and Brisbane or Melbourne.
Some say, some time ago we had full time calendar seasons. Now, I don't know, what we have right now...
We have hills. Somebody will smile and laught out loud (doing lots of lol'ing), but this is true! Our highest hill is smaller than our tallest building (read tower).
None of these images are connected to my country, they are just informative and entertaining!
P.S. this is 25 comment article with action! If you don't know answer, please, write anythink you want. It will help with my mission!! Thank you!

Any questions?
Only read bits and pieces but I say Sweden?
Now I have re-read the article, my first comment seems stupid and I will say Albania
You didn't actually ask a question? If it's what country are you from, I abstain. You told me, months and months ago and that wouldn't be fair. 🙂
O.o
I couldn't even begin to guess...
*picks up an Australian history book.... turns the single page over to see that its blank as well*...
A place where stuff actually happened 😛
Montenegro? lol
Bosnia and Herzegovina?
Latvia??? Also made me spend far too much time trying to figure this out, my head hurts, its 4am and i still have no idea 😛
Malta
This was my first thought /o/
Malta is an archipelago (several islands) without any bordering countries. It is not a member of NATO. It's fairly barren with no noteworthy forests or rivers. Due to being located further south than Tangiers and Mosul for example, it doesn't quite fully get all four seasons, etc.
Try harder plz bro
wrong comment ....
Scroll down a few more comments 😉
estonia
Great puzzle. I also think Latvia.
Belgium?
Is this Pirot?
All of the large rivers in Belgium are also located in foreign countries. The highest building in Belgium is the VRT Tower Egem, 305 metres tall, their tallest mountain however, Signal de Botrange, is 694 metres tall. Belgium was a founding member of NATO in 1949, and thus didn't recently join it. Belgium has a population of 11,2 million, larger than Melbourne and Sydney combined.
Lame ...
Croatia

I put way more time into this than I should've..
So, preliminarily I started off with geography:
We're looking for a small nation in the northern hemisphere with a coastline but no noteworthy islands and four neighbouring countries.
There are several nations that match this description:
Georgia - Eliminated due to being larger than Tasmania.
Lithuania - Likely contestant
Latvia - Likely contestant
Belgium - Eliminated. All of the large rivers in Belgium are also located in foreign countries. The highest building in Belgium is the VRT Tower Egem, 305 metres tall, their tallest mountain however, Signal de Botrange, is 694 metres tall.
Slovenia - Eliminated. Their tallest building is the Trbovlje Chimney, 360 metres tall. The Julian alps stretches into Slovenia, making their tallest mountain top, Triglav is 2864 metres tall.
Montenegro - Eliminated, borders five countries: Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kosovo. Not a member of NATO.
Albania - Eliminated. Their tallest mountain is Mount Korab, 2764 metres tall. Their tallest building, Shijak Mediumwave Broadcasting Mast is a mere 130 metres tall.
That leaves Latvia and Lithuania. Both nations became members of NATO in 2004. Both have four neighbours.
Latvia borders Estonia, Russia, Lithuania and Belarus.
Lithuania borders Latvia, Poland, Russia and Belarus.
Melbourne (Which is smaller than Sydney) has a population of 4,529,500 (2015 estimate.
Latvia has a population of 2,263,000 (2009 estimate). Lithuania has a population of 2,875,593 (2016 estimate).
Here's where it gets really interesting..
Lithuania's tallest building is the Vilnius TV Tower at 326 metres. It's highest elevation point is the Aukštojas Hill at 293 metres tall.
Latvia's tallest building is the Z-Towers, Riga, at 135 metres. It's highest elevation point is Gaising at 312 metres tall.
Lithuania's longest river is the Neman, 914km long, and starts in Belarus, flows through Lithuania and along the Lithuanian - Russian border into the Baltic Sea.
Latvia's longest river is the Gauja, 452km long, starting deep into Latvia, flowing north and forming the border to Estonia (meaning it also part of Estonia) and then out into the Gulf of Riga.
This, along with the fact that women from both Lithuania and Latvia look like my grandmother's rotting corpse, means both countries are disqualified.
However, one would be overlooking when it comes to the case of Gauja, since it is almost entirely inside Latvia, except from that tiny stretch of it that makes out the border to Estonia.
The women I have no understanding for though.
Conclusion: you're a liar from Latvia. 🙁
Holy shit dude you stoned ! 😲
I think you'll find that latvia's tallest building is the radio and tv tower in riga standing at 368m. I'll admit i didn't look into the rivers, by that time was far too tired. As for women i think its safe to say that no man will ever understand them 🙂
no actual clue
Great Article ! 😆
Estonia
Sorry bud, Saaremaa (Ösel) and Hiiumaa (Dagö) are two massive islands just off the western coast of Estonia, 2,671km2 and 989km2 respectively.
Try again :')
Latvia
Island?
