    To be fair, it’s in French on the map, and “CÔTE D’IVOIRE” isn’t as obviously wrong if you don’t know French.

    I fully expected them to have put South Africa up north, but lucky for them they didn’t try to include it.

      I guess nobody in the room was familiar with French, or ever had the curiosity to wonder what CÔTE D’IVOIRE means.

      I almost wish the AI threw in some fake countries.

      Kalmiba.

      Marwambo.

      And they’d just happily talk about the happenings in those countries.

        I’m surprised that they would have a language other than English included as the Trumpers appear to be focussed upon themselves which logically excludes other languages.
