September Extra Credit

Hey gang. Each month you will be given an opportunity to get extra credit. In order to get this very helpful extra credit though, you need to be a good student and check the class blog. Each question is worth two extra credit points for a grand possible total of ten. Answers MUST be turned in on a 3x5 notecard...no exceptions. Here are the questions:

1. Finnmark, punctuated by fjords and inhabited by reindeer herders, is the northernmost county of what country?

2. Roraima, a state with a shoreline on the Rio Negro, is located along the Equator in what country?

3. What is the capital and principal city for the state of Western Australia?

4. In the 1960s, Rwanda and Burundi gained their independence from which European country?

5. The Pilcomayo River forms part of the border between Paraguay and what country?
