@scope_views No, but good guess. We revealed the answer yesterday.

https://t.co/oFjkZlh3Kv has conducted the first-ever analysis revealing when a total solar eclipse last occurred and will next occur for every country on Earth.

If you had to guess...

Which country has gone the longest without a total solar eclipse?

[National Eclipse @NationalEclipse]

@markalot63 Bermuda isn't a country, so it wouldn't have counted anyway. In any case, we revealed the answer yesterday.

[National Eclipse @NationalEclipse]

@Eclipsedbyevil It was a good guess, though. A lot of people don't even know what the Maldives are.

@Eclipsedbyevil @HurricaneImelda Yeah, do us all a favor and delete it out of this thread.

[National Eclipse @NationalEclipse]

@Eclipsedbyevil No, but the answer was already revealed anyway.

[National Eclipse @NationalEclipse]

@HurricaneImelda You must have peeked.

@southscanner No, not Kenya. A TSE on safari would be cool, though.

@NotAnotherParsi Yours is the second guess for Bhutan. But no.

[National Eclipse @NationalEclipse]

@fanOfThings00 Not Tonga, but good guess.

[National Eclipse @NationalEclipse]

@tracy13561 No, but if it was, their drought would be about to end.

[National Eclipse @NationalEclipse]

@ElCaminoBilly You get credit for being one of the few people who even know there's a country called Tuvalu. But it's not the correct answer.

[National Eclipse @NationalEclipse]

@donacamp Good guess, but no.

[National Eclipse @NationalEclipse]

@EdDinIL Nepal had one quite recently. Maybe someone tried to see it from the summit. But exciting yourself in a low-oxygen environment is probably a bad idea.

[National Eclipse @NationalEclipse]

@EdDinIL No. You're too stuck on the "tiny country" theory.

[National Eclipse @NationalEclipse]

@EdDinIL Liechtenstein is a good guess, and it's been a few hundred years for them, but not the correct answer.
