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) - Vanuatu. Kumabjorn, 1 point
Vanuatu has over 100 local languages, and a population of c. 250,000

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

3. What country is each associated with? (2 points)
Clue: a chance of an easy two points, as both countries have already been mentioned. You just have to match each one to its own pidgin.

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