Well, that's a country in south central Asia, just north of India and bordering and including a part of the Himilaya Mountains

Ulan Bator

Where are the Pyrenese mountains.

These are located between Spain and France. The border runs through them and the tiny country of Andorra is along that same border.

Where is lake Aral?

I'm gonna say this is in the southern part of Russia...

Where are the Caucus mountains?

southwestern Europe, in the western part of Russia..??

Where is the Elbe river?

In Germany - it used to form part of the border between Soviet occupation sectors and the American, British and French zones - it was also the location where American troops made contact with Soviet soldiers in the closing days of World War II.

Where does the Mekong river start? Where does it end?

mmm..not having a world map here, I'm not sure, but I know it runs through Cambodia and may form part of the border with Thailand..and it ends up emptying into the South China Sea south of Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) in Vietnam.

What was Bangladesh called 30 years ago?

East Pakistan - it was separated from the rest of Pakistan by the mass of India and declared it's independence.

Greeks and Turks.

It is part of Egypt now, I think..Israel conquered it during the Six Day War in 1967.

Where is Cheju island?

I'm gonna guess here that it might be one of those northern Japanese islands still disputed with Russia...? Ok..that's probably wrong.

Where is lake Baikal?

South central Russia, I think and it is known for..uh..something..like it's way polluted or drying up or something like that.

Where are the Ural Mountains?

Western Russia. During World War II, Soviet industries were moved beyond the divide in an attempt to keep them out of range of German bombers.

What is the capital of Uraguy?

Montevideo

Where is Catalan spoken?

I want to say that is in Spain...but I don't remember for sure.
