    (June 27, 1977- )
    Capital is Djibouti
    Former French colony of Afar and Issas
    Slightly smaller than Massachusetts
    Borders Eritrea, Ethiopia and Somalia
    Population is about that of Nashville, Tennessee

Why Djibouti might be annoying:

    Djibouti is the hottest inhabited place in the world, average temperature is 86ºF.
    When the French military presence left around 2000, it hurt the country's economy.
    It was formerly Afars and The Issas, which was first alphabetically among countries.
    It has no rivers.
    Women are considered property.
    Its people suffer earthquakes and droughts.
    Infant mortality is 10%.
    More than half the Djiboutians do not see their 54th birthday.
    Less than one in fifty have a phone.

Why Djibouti might not be annoying:

    A force of almost a thousand Americans stationed here, monitor Al-Qaeda activity.
    They welcomed Americans to use them as a base to launch strikes against Afghanistan and Iraq.
    Allowing American Military presence has slightly strained their relationship with France.
    Their greatest resources is being a strategically located port south of the Red Sea, where much of the world's oil sails through.
    Refugees from Somalia and Ethiopia have moved into Djibouti.
    They have native flamingoes.
    Since there are not many tourists, it is not a tourist trap.
