Geo quiz
For today’s Geo Quiz, we’re ending the affair. The United States generally leads the rest of the world when it comes to divorce. It’s estimated that as many as 40 percent of US marriages end in divorce. By comparison, divorce in India is considered rare. But we’re looking for two countries where divorce is just plain illegal. One is a Pacific Island nation where marriage is for life. Another country that bans divorce is a small and mostly Roman Catholic nation in Southern Europe. It has a very dim view of divorce, but a great view of the Mediterranean. So name these two countries where you ought to think twice before you say I do.
