Group A: Argentina, Iran, Jordan, Netherlands
Group B: Bolivia, Finland, Mongolia, Pakistan, Rwanda, United States
Answer
The lowest land elevation of each country in Group A is below sea level. Respectively, the lowest points (in meters) are: Laguna del Carbon (-105), Caspian Sea (-28), Dead Sea (-408), and Zuidplaspolder (-7). Thus, the United States, whose lowest point is Death Valley (-86), can be added to Group A.Hide Answer Show Answer

My answer was Bolivia: all the top countries have flags based on 3 equally spaced horizontal bands, as does Bolivia (and none of the others in the second group: the new Rwandan flag does have 3 bands, but they are not equally spaced).
I thought it was as hard as it was fun: It rocked. I had to thunk really hard.
my first one and i got it wrong. oh well. if at first you dont succeed try again right?
