Do they sometimes move countries around?

Question

In a test today i got an f because i said that denmark is a country adjecant to vietman and uganda, and i am like totally sure that it is because we went on holiday to denmark and we crossed the border into vietnam and uganda like ALL THE TIME. so they move countries around sometimes because if they dont my teacher is totally full of it and i'll sue her for giving me an unfair F"!!!

Answer 1

Are you serious or is this a joke?

If you're stupid enough to think that you crossed into Vietnam and Uganda from Denmark then you earned your F. You may want to check your luggage to see if your brain was lost by the airlines while you were traveling.

Answer 2

The thing called geography is an EXACT science as things are not moving that fast, even conflicts and wars don't move country around, it is a politician's job.

You are wrong my friend, open an Atlas or search the WEB. Denmark is in northern Europe on the North Sea while Vietnam is in South East Asia and Uganda is in Africa, on the East coast if I remember right, with no access to the Indian Sea.

This question must be a joke and I got fooled by it, but it gave me 2 points, some pride and a smile looking at the question......have fun

Answer 3

Hello, anybody home? Denmark is in Europe, Vietnam is in Asia and Uganda is in Africa. Now unless you have an extremely fast conveyance or are yourself faster than a speeding bullet,it is impossible to cross from one to the other ALL THE TIME. There is a large book called an Atlas, you might want to have a look at it. Your teacher is right and you are wrong. Next question.

Answer 4

Sometimes boundaries are redrawn because of political changes. But Vietnam and Uganda have never even been close to each other let alone Denmark!

You must have had a very interesting holiday!! I'm sure if you talk to your parents they will clarify where you were, and which countries were close enough to visit.

Now, who are "they"?

Answer 5

Vietnam is in Asia, by the Pacific Ocean.
Uganda is a landlocked country in Eastern Africa.
Denmark is in northern-central Europe. It's sometimes considered part of Scandinavia because of the language, which resembles the Norwegian and Swedish languages.

Maybe you should study or at least look at some maps once in a while.

They've never moved the name of a country to another country, although they're constantly moving political boundaries of countries.

Answer 6

I think you have a good point. To answer, countries are not moved around enough in my opinion. I would like to move France further away from the United Kingdom, and then replace New Zealand with Madagascar.

Answer 7

Um, no, I don't think so!

Although sometimes borders do change and countries even change their names, Denmark has always been in Scandanavia (up by Norway, Sweden, etc.) and has never been in Asia (Vietnam) or Africa (Uganda).

Maybe you dreamt it all!

Answer 8

Wow, this is astonishing, incredible and world-shaking (pun intended)!
I have heard about the moving continents theory, but never about one with respect to moving countries. Sheer genius!
This is a pioneering insight and merits the Nobel Prize and immediate full tenure at Harvard.

Answer 9

So what exactly were you on when you went to Denmark. There are a lot foolish people out there who would like to share that experience.

Answer 10

Either you must move around VERY quickly, or you have been smoking some very funny stuff indeed!
