mc5 - AVMA Take 2

Yes, it's another round of that classic guessing game - Animal, Vegetable, Mineral, Abstract [or any combination thereof]. This effort - '03/'04 should address any queries, but then again, may just serve to confuse and baffle which some might say is the point of the game. Patience, integrity and a decent search engine may be useful ....

Rosie

The Falklands War?

Bigsmith

Is the answer a proper noun?

I've not been credited with a humdinger before - thank you!

ImNotJohn

Is the answer the name of a fictional work?

Sounds like we could be looking for a fictional account of a real place

Juxtapose

Mordor?

Kim

[Quendalon] No.
[Rosie] No.
[Bigsmith] No. I've never dinged anyone's hum before, either.
[INJ] No.
[Juxtapose] No.

Irouléguy

Is this fictional place in Africa?

Kim

[Irouleguy] No. Further trips along this route might (but only might) prove helpful.

Rosie

Van Daemon's Land?

Quendalon

Above sea level?

ImNotJohn

In Australasia/Oceania?

CdM

Was this once a country but is so no longer?

I think the striking thing is that we are looking for a geographic entity that is not a proper noun, which rules out things like Shangri-La or Atlantis (both of which could also be ruled out on other grounds, I think, but anyway).
