Nice quiz, Gadgetron. Maybe the start of a series?
@OscilatingGibbon: Djibouti borders the Gulf of Aden as you say, but the Gulf of Aden is considered a part of the Arabian Sea: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_of_Aden
In general, smaller coastal bodies of water (bays, bights, channels, gulfs, and passages) are considered to be part of seas, and seas are ultimately considered to be part of oceans. In this particular case, the Gulf of Aden is a part of the Arabian Sea and the Arabian Sea is part of the Indian Ocean.
I originally made the same mistake Darcita did. I read Arabian Sea and immediately started trying to enter countries bordering the Persian Gulf. Strange. |
