Yep, I just noticed XD I'm in love with NZ since I wrote an English paper about it in high school. It was ages ago but the Maori name Aotearoa is stuck in my head since then c:

Well, I knew 3/4 of the answers because I am actually a Kiwi XD So it kinda felt like cheating. But that's so cool, that you wrote a paper about it! Most education don't deem it as important and so a lot of people don't even know our country exists.

Sadly true, but I'm proud to say that I studied my geography well and liked to focus on those countries "that are not so popular". Australia and New Zealand are among my favourite foreign countries since I read The Tomorrow Series.

That's really cool, there are a lot of really interesting countries that don't have much commercial attention, I mean I hadn't heard of a lot of the countries participating in the Winter Olympics this year XD And the Tomorrow Series is really good, I did like watching the movie "Tomorrow, When the War Began" and it's not often that popular book series feature us Oceanian countries, so even little mentions in movies or books is a gem. What other countries have you studied, may I ask?

I started reading the books from the Tomorrow Series right after watching the movie, which I loved although it wasn't as successful worldwide as it was in Australia/Oceania, which is a shame in my opinion <.< I read the whole series in the original English version because only the first book has been translated into my native language so far, which is a shame as well, and loved it deeply c:

Let me think... other countries I studied more closely either because I was studying their native languages or their history were Austria, Switzerland, Japan, Afghanistan, Israel and Algeria.

Yeah, it's a real shame that they weren't an international success because they are really are a great series of books! Oh, that's cool. I assume you are Italian, because it says Italy on your page?

That's a interesting amount of countries. Switzerland is kinda unique because of the whole it being neutral land, and I've always loved Japanese Culture! Anime and Mangas and stuff XD
I don't know much about Austria or Algeria though, even though they are quite well-known throughout the world.
