Notes on countries that start with B

B covers every continent except Oceania. In Europe you will find Belgium, Bulgaria, Belarus and Bosnia and Herzegovina. In Asia there are Bangladesh, Bahrain, Bhutan and Brunei. Africa has Benin, Botswana, Burkina Faso and Burundi.

In the Americas, Brazil is the largest, with a green flag, a yellow diamond and a blue globe. Bolivia, Belize, Barbados and the Bahamas complete the list of independent states.

Bhutan has one of the most unusual flags in the world, with a white dragon across a yellow and orange field. Bouvet Island, an uninhabited Norwegian dependency in the South Atlantic, is the most remote entry.

Fun fact: Burkina Faso, which means "land of upright people", changed its name from Upper Volta in 1984.
