I'm a formula one fan, so the answer was quite easy for me

Here's the next one:

What's the only midland in south east asia?

China?

HELP! What's a midland?

Laos?

A midland is a country with no coast line. In germany will call such a county a "Binnenland".

I think you're getting terminology a bit mixed up.

In (British) English, we term such an occurrence as 'landlocked'.

Midland refers to the middle of a country.

I, for example, live in the West Midlands of England. I'm about 60 miles from any body of saltwater (which even then is a bit of a fallacy, since it's only the estuary of the River Severn).

I used http://dict.leo.org/ for translation, but as eirikho has also problems to get the meaning, it seems to be not the correct word. Sorry

and thanks for the explanation

OK. Let's try to ask harder question:

Largest Muslim country.

Post by **Dave** » 13 Feb 2007 13:14

A bit ambiguous Wile...

You mean the largest country by area that is pre-dominantly Muslim, or the country with the largest Muslim population?

Wile E. Coyote · Post by **Wile E. Coyote** » 13 Feb 2007 13:15

With largest Muslim population.
Sorry, I wasn't clear.

Think you've got it bad? I'm 69 miles from The Wash, my nearest source. And 72 miles is, according to BBC's series Coast, the furthest from saltwater anyone in the UK is at any point! Oh well, can't argue, living next to th MML. I can see it from the room in which i type this message. Todays sightings...
