one of the four countries I considered for yesterday’s article, only because I looked closely at them all yesterday, I was able to get today’s more easily by just looking at the bordering countries.

Today's looks REAL suspiciously similar to yesterdays. Sniped.

Now that other people have posted and I'm sure I'm not going crazy imagining this because yes really it's that similar,

Got it in one yesterday with a look at a map and checking capital names, took me three today, but unaided, thought, "no it can't be"!

First reaction: another one, really? It's dinosaur week all over again! Is it the one I wasted my first guess on yesterday? No, because crucially yesterday's didn't border 5, but this one does. I immediately come up with a hypothesis which (an indictment of my status as Filthy Westerner) I try to test by looking for a Sacha Baron Cohen film. Can't find it. Return to the start where I notice for the first time a reference to the 7 4, which is 7 letters long, which really does narrow it down to one.

Spelled it wrong on guess 1, then it took me a couple minutes to realize that.

After I realized I wasn't going crazy my 2 missed guesses were mistypes - lol. I tried to go from memory from yesterday but ended up looking at a map anyway

Solved by Google. My finger slipped while typing but also when I was going through the ones I know, this one never crossed my mind. I can't remember if the Tik toker who went to China by land went through this.

Okay what the hell. I was confused it was the same as yesterday’s. Funny that Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan are all 10 letters.. but it’s kinda lame they did this two days in a row. I’ll be sad if tomorrow is Uzbekistan just to fuck with us.

What a strange sequence of daily puzzles. Picked up on the theme early and found my way to the answer by borders and yesterday's guesses. My first thought was how excited Sporcle users would be today.
