In a world that has decided
That it's going to lose its mind
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind.

75.

Absolutely gutted I missed Spain after mentioning them in my head time and again when going through the countries of that continent. Silly mistakes in missing Algeria and Switzerland, and would never have got the other three I missed.

Got 59.

Was poor on Africa and Central America. Pissed off that it didn't accept 'Soviet Union' - had to give USSR... So i count that as a 'moral 60'...

good game...
