"Model United Nations," [Thursday, April 19, 2012, first period]

[sith_happened]

It had taken Anakin a half hour to clear the classroom from the adorable but chompy bunnies that had infested it overnight, and one of them had taken a chunk out of his pant leg for his troubles, giving the class a clear view of the duck socks that Juliet had insisted Anakin wear to school today.

"Welcome to our final class of Model United Nations," Anakin said with a slightly strained smile for their guests. "Hopefully you've all learned a lot about, um, uniting nations."

It was possible that Anakin had no idea what the purpose of the United Nations was.

He passed out his exams.

"Good luck everyone. No talking. Your time begins now."

1. Name as many nations of the world as you can.
2. Identify the following nations by their flags.
3. What is the name of the Secretary General of the United Nations?
4. Where is the United Nations located?
5. You have six bunnies, a lizard, a bowl of pudding, a ball of twine and no explosives. Use these objects to describe how you would bring peace to the Middle East.

Stacey wasn't actually a bad student, but wow, she was lost on this one, mostly.

1. She got most of this right. She was a babysitter. She knew that song from the show with the countries. Almost entirely by heart. And would be singing it all day.
2. Thirteen gotten!
3. Steve?
4. In the United Nations building.
5. If the bunnies are the chomping kind, I would sic them after any countries that were currently being bad until they stopped. Same with the lizard if it's a chompy kind, too. If they're still being a pain we could tie them up with a ball of twine until they stop, and everyone gets pudding for dessert if they're good.
I just think your expectations are a little unreasonable here.

Alex could mostly thank his adventures in covert ops for his performance on this test.

1. He did...pretty okay on this question. He got all of the obvious ones and some of the not-so-obvious ones, even if a few of them were horrendously misspelled. Oceania was mostly a big blank, and he missed large chunks of Africa and most of the -stans, as well as your smaller European nations. Although he had a startling ability to list any country that was currently a war zone, and even got South Sudan. So he probably got, like, two thirds.
2. Alex got sixteen, and it would have been seventeen if he hadn't put New Zealand for Australia, even if some (such as Sweden, Norway, Jamaica, and South Africa) had question marks next to them.
3. It's some Asian guy! I don't know his name. Something with a Moon?
4. United Nations Plaza, New York, New York, USA
5. Alex spent pretty much every second of the class period that wasn't spent on the first question--or on going back to add countries like Tunisia and oh hey wasn't Georgia a country as well as a state to question one--detailing his frightfully complicated, incredibly cracked out, and just possibly workable plan for this scenario.
