No idea about this. And I would not be able to be sure even if I had to choose between 2 of these. So I use my gift to "JUMP" this question.

Let's jump this.

Croatian mercenaries were famous for their neckties. You also call them cravats in many countries. The French "à la cravate" means Croatian-style.

Thanks to Totallympics I became an expert of world time zones :d  This is a tricky one and I was going to answer Brazil because I was sure of Netherlands (UTC +1), Norway (UTC +1) and China (UTC +8) time zones. But then I am also sure Brazil can not be UTC +1.

 

The Netherlands also owns Aruba, whose time zone is UTC -4. So I will go with A. Netherlands.

Brazil has four timezones, from UTC-2 to UTC-5... but the Caribbean Netherlands was the catch, so A is right. :d

    • Totallympics Annual International Song Contest 2025      Thank you Slovenia! Argentina get their second 12 points of this year's contest to keep their hopes of a podium finish very much alive.   Big points also for Italy who become the 3rd nation to breach the 100-point barrier and they close the gap to France in 2nd.   That concludes the third session of this year's TISC Annual. Ireland maintain the lead as they have from the very start of the contest. Their lead now stands at 28 points which is sizeable though not insurmountable with 8 juries still to vote, including Ireland.   We will take a 1 hour 30 minute break now and will resume the fourth and final session at 19:00 GMT.      Juries Voted: 26/34    1  Ireland 2 136  18  Guatemala   53  2  France 4 108  19  Netherlands   51  3  Italy 11 102  20  Tunisia   50  4  Argentina 12 96  21  Denmark   49  5  Romania   85  22  Poland   48  6  Albania 9 85  23  Sweden 1 46  7  Spain   84  24  Lithuania 3 45  8  Germany 7 84  25  Malta 5 43  9  Canada   74  26  Turkey 10 43  10  Mexico   73  27  Greece   37  11  Serbia   66  28  Slovenia   36  12  Kazakhstan 8 65  29  China   34  13  Portugal   65  30  Bulgaria   32  14  Great Britain 6 63  31  Indonesia   30  15  United States   62  32  Slovakia   28  16  Ukraine   57  33  Brazil   28  17  Israel   55  34  India   15

    • Totallympics Annual International Song Contest 2025      Thank you United States!
