It's such a long time since we had a quiz question, so I hope you'll forgive my slipping these in. Inspired by a most wonderful holiday in (my) winter!

1. As longtime quiz thread visitors may recall, the country with the highest total number of languages is Papua New Guinea. But what country has the highest number of languages per capita? (1 point)

2. What are Tok Pisin and Bislama? (1 point) - Pidgin languages. Stitchawl, 1 point

3. What country is each associated with? (2 points)

4. What historical event is considered one of the main causes in their origin? (1 point)
