Well, I hope everyone could name one!

Three others come immediately to mind.

 

[Crankyshank]

I would hope people would be able to name at least 1

ETA: Off the top of my head I can name 7

They just have U in their name or start with the letter U? If its just U in the name:

United States
Peru
Belgium
Uraguay(sp)
Ugonda(is that still a country?)
Russia
Uzbekhastain
Turkey
Saudia Arabia
Kuwait

Is that right??

A student (4th grader) gave me a little trivia question sheet and I told him I would have my answers on Monday. It is all in good fun. This was one of his questions!

Oh and yes, I got the one!!

Is Ukraine a country or is it an area called the Ukraine?

 

[hopemax]

Then the last one would be Vanuatu. Which was season 9 in Survivor.

EDIT: I wonder if it was 10 before the breakup of the USSR? And now there are more.

Wow you have some really good ones too!! But does this mean that there are more than 10 countries??

 

[Crankyshank]

It's got to be countries that start with the letter U because there are a lot more than 10 with U in their name.

United States
United Kingdom
United Arab Emirates
Uganda
Ukraine
Uruguay
Uzbekistan

 

[Sugardimples]

I just counted 64.

 

[KarenB]

I am thinking there are more than 10. Remember, this is written by a fourth grader trying to stump me! Or at least make me think over the weekend!

Maybe he meant countries that started with an U??

 

[KarenB]

Oh no!!!!! I read it wrong. It is supposed to be 10 countries with 4 letters in the name. I thought the 4 was a U......

LOL-so sorry-I need a break.
