Today's world of texting is made fun with the use of emojis, emojis as we all know are small digital images or icons used to communicate an idea or emotion in our texting today.

The idea behind "Guess the Country" was derived from our love of Emojis and the idea of everyone loving a surprise guess. "Guess What!" is our favorite phrase when we have a surprise to share.

Guess the Country, is more or less an instinctive game to bring your creativity and understanding of our emojis to play, hence, It requires one's thinking ability and understanding of emojis. With that all being said and done, let's have fun.

The Contest

For the contest, I will be giving you a combination of emojis and maybe letters that I feel are close enough to the country's name to serve as “clues” which you can use to figure out the country I'm referring to. Are you ready?

Last Week's Review

Our last week's clues are shown below:

From the emojis we have;

GAB (Chatty) + ON = GABON 🇬🇦

The resulting country is GABON 🇬🇦

Let me tell you about Gabon, a captivating country in Central Africa. It is known for its lush rainforests, breathtaking landscapes, and rich wildlife. With its diverse ecosystems, including pristine beaches, dense jungles, and even savannahs, Gabon offers a truly unique and adventurous experience for nature lovers and explorers.

FUN FACT: Did you know that Gabon is home to 13 national parks, covering more than 10% of the country's land area?

Among all the guesses for last week, the first correct guess was from @tripple-e, so this user takes home our prize as our winner

"Solomon island" Maybe

Entry no.1
I'm interested to know your logic behind your guess, mind sharing it with me?

The star given in the emoji looked solo to me and the next emoji is island so i think it's "Solomon island".
I could be wrong but I want to participate.😊

Entry no.2
Here comes our last week winner, I'm interested to know your logic behind your guess, mind sharing it with me?

I took the first emoji which is or are stars to represent a Marshall rank in an army, navy etc while the tree represent island. That is how I come about the country name Marshall Islands

Very interesting context... But we will find out, come next Friday. Thank you for your participation.

My pleasure

I think it's "Solomon Island"

Entry no.3
Do you mind sharing the reason behind your guess with me?

The tree🌴 means land so I tried to figure what this star🌠 means so I i used the parable of the 3 wise men using star as direction. So star stands for 'wisdom' and 'Solomon' was the man God bless with wisdom, so that was how I ended up with that name Solomon Island. ...😜😜😜

What a fantastic concept, I'm impressed... We will find out, come next Friday. Thank you for your participation.

You're making me laugh out loud here...🤣🤣🤣
I wish myself success anyway.

That's maybe " Thailand "

Entry no.4
Do you mind sharing the reason behind your guess with me?

As soon as I saw this 2nd Emoji , land came to my mind. So I started thinking about which countries have the word land in their names and Thailand came to my mind first 😂🏝️🌠 so Yaay .

Answer :- England
Star is going to end , so end + land = england .

Entry no.7

Shooting star 🌠 + islands 🏝️
