Responses:

To add (not to correct) there are also two Spanish enclaves in Morocco - that are still part of Spain -- nm - Roger More Oct 22, 13:34 4
- did not know that. -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 13:35 3
  - They actually exist since the XVth century, not a remainder of the colonial times. -- nm - celedhrymandias Oct 22, 13:37 2
    - very cool. -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 13:38 1
      - Also cause of eternal bickery between Spain and Morocco. -- nm - celedhrymandias Oct 22, 13:40
Guinea Bissau? -- nm - Roger More Oct 22, 13:33
Equatorial Guinea. -- nm - celedhrymandias Oct 22, 13:33 3
- Incidentally, the only African colony (apart from Morocco) that Spain ever had. -- nm - celedhrymandias Oct 22, 13:33 2
  - also one of the most corrupt governments in africa. -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 13:34 1
    - Well, it's not like we set a particularly good example. -- nm - celedhrymandias Oct 22, 13:36
Equatorial Guinea. -- nm - Reagen Oct 22, 13:32 10
- *ding ding ding* -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 13:33 9
  - this was actually my first intuition...but i second guessed myself... -- nm - znufrii Oct 22, 13:33 8
    - I *never* would have guessed it. -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 13:34 7
      - I need to find a way to make this random geographical knowledge pay for itself someday. -- nm - Reagen Oct 22, 13:36 6

        well, my random knowledge of African capitals is actually paying off now. -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 13:37 4
        
        My random geographical knowledge is making me head my friends' table at Facebook's Geography challenge. - celedhrymandias Oct 22, 13:41
        
        they change them like every 5 years. -- nm - Reagen Oct 22, 13:40 2
        
        Nigeria and Tanzania are the only African countries I can think of that have changed their capitals -- nm - Roger More Oct 22, 13:51
        
        not as bad as that. -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 13:41
Sierra leone? -- nm - Diva Oct 22, 13:31
Sierra Leone -- nm - znufrii Oct 22, 13:30 3
- you're thinking of Sergio Leone who actually filmed his spaghetti westerns in Spain -- nm - zork Oct 22, 13:33
- ps. right neighborhood -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 13:32
- that's either F or E, but not S. -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 13:31
Spanish Morocco? -- nm - Mop Oct 22, 13:30 2
- see. IM. -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 13:30 1
  - Spanish Morocco is different than Vanilla Morocco. Doesn't taste as good, though. - Mop Oct 22, 13:33
Burkina Faso? -- nm - Beryllium Oct 22, 13:29 2
- French. -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 13:29 1
  - Well, as prizes go, that's not a bad one. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 22, 13:30
