As the GeoFact of the Day Blog's Z Countries post reveals, there are two countries with names starting with the letter Z. ZAIRE was another Z country until 1997, the year it was renamed Democratic Republic of the Congo. A much smaller and short-lived country than Zaire, ZANZIBAR lasted less than one year (in 1964) before merging with Tanganyika to create Tanzania. Zambia and Zimbabwe flag images below come from Flagpedia.net; Zaire and Zanzibar flag images are derived from Wikipedia images.
