Guess the map

First time the country ever imported oil?

 

[say1988]

No. Canada has imported it for quite a while (cheaper than shipping it accross the country).

 

[ilduce349]

That might be correct

 

[choxorn]

There was one, it's just that it took place in 1976.

I can't see this pic.

Last RoP signed? Or last luxury trade agreement?

Actually, I'm thinking last MPP signed is more likely.

Finland wasn't a country until after the Russian Revolution. How is it coloured in with pre-1900?

I was wondering the same thing about the Philippines, and Iceland wasn't a separate country before 1900 either, neither was Norway,

Guess this:

There the map again.

I didn't notice that. Well spotted.

That may be an important hint, as despite being part of the Russian Empire it had different laws, a different religion, etc. But I can't figure out the map.

 

[ilduce349]

or, maybe Russia did this in 1900, and then again in 2000 making it fall under both.

I'd noticed Philippines and Cuba, but they were ceded in 1898, no?

I thought maybe because they have the same colour as Spain, it might've carried over from colonial powers, but African countries aren't taking the colour of their former European powers.

 

[ZeletDude]

This map is very difficult I have virtually no idea what it could be.

same thing applies here

 

[emzie]

I think we'll need a hint. I like maps like this!

What about Liberia? It is colored pre-1900. This falls closer with South America and West Europe than with the rest of Africa.

It was independent in the 19th century, unlike many African states.

 

[ilduce349]

wasn't it owned by pourtugal?

 

[ZeletDude]

No it was independent for the whole Scramble of Africa.
