Papau New Guinea is home to around 700 Papuan and Melanesia tribes, each with its own distinct language.

Does the European Union count as one country?

In that case it's the EU. But I still don't know the number then.

Sierra Leone has around 53 languages spoekn but I would have to say that most countries have a lot, the answer is probably indonesia, micronesia or papua new guinea though the US has around 40 (native languages included)

I think I was right and I have another question in mind so I'll ask it...

Q. 18: Which country is oficially called the "Most Serene Republic of..." ?

Don't search the net yet if you don't know it, that would be too easy. Lets see if someone knows it by himself...

The Republic of Venice was the most serene... But are you talking about actual independent countries?

 

[willemvanoranje]

Im talking about the oficial name of a presently indeoendent state.

Like Greece is officially called "Republique Hellenique" or "Hellenic Republic".

[Aristonico]

Vatican city?

 

[Jamb]

Ok, im back, terribly sorry for having left without notice like that. I was gone to Vancouver, i wanted to tell you, but i ended up forgetting, and when i remembered it was too late. Really sorry, anyways Andu Indorin had the right answer Papau New Guinea has 750 different languages spoken in its country.

 

[Az]

I was wrong then!

Question 19 belongs to Andu since Willem can't think of any

Andu you are next!

He says that because you said Andu is next. He is next. About the answer: you sure it's not Vatican? Vatican is very small you know (I know you know). It's not even 1 square kilometer.
