I have assigned 198 countries a number. The countries I've chosen are the 193 members of the UN plus those recognised by at least 20 UN members. Each week I will pick a country using a random number generator and we will discuss that country.I have assigned 198 countries a number.

It's the Football War.

I heard about that when a war started over football

Didn't they have a fairly brutal war (civil?) a while ago (or is that the 'football war?)

El Salvador has a bigger population than the Honduras, not what it looks like on the map.

Edit: Looked it up, was wrong; Honduras has had a bigger population since the 1990s (but before then, Salvador had bigger).
