Hint: It was stone age technology. Apparently a shift to grain in diets led to bacteria build-up and tooth decay. |

How about Mexico? Corn leads to tooth decay. |

Not Mexico either. It's a European country. |

You mean the shift to agriculture was a plot fomented by dentists to aid their business? Wow. Conspiracy theory strikes again!

This question should be an easy one...
What country has the longest coastline? |

Since I don't recall the answer, the more I think about it, the harder it gets. Countries with islands have more coast. Greenland looks bigger and tropical countries look smaller than they really are due to map distortion.
Official guess Canada.
It's the second largest country in the world, with plenty of islands and fjords, and that big old Hudson Bay. |

Maybe this one has been asked before. If so it should be easier. What is the largest landlocked country in the world?[/b] |

A good guess, but it is only the second largest. |
