Name three countries that begin with the same three letters, in the same order. Iraq, Iran and another country, for example, would be correct — if there were another country beginning with I, R and A.

  2. I’m sorry, but that’s incorrect. Greenland is a Danish territory.

    And the combination of the United States, United Kingdom and United Arab Emirates is technically correct, but we can do better than that. There are at least two other combinations that work.

  4. Monaco
    Mongolia
    Montenegro

    There is also a set beginning with BEL, but I’ll leave that up to someone else.

    … Now get back to posting the POSTCARDS!!!

  5. Well done all around. MAL, MON and BEL are all correct, though there may be some debate on whether Montenegro is an independent country just yet. I know they voted for it last year, but I’m not sure where it stands…
    In the meantime, name at least seven U.S. states whose two largest cities begin with the same letter. Good luck!
