Been following the Burkinabé for a while now and am a big fan of US des Forces Armées. AS Police are utter scruffs btw

Ougadougou is the capital. I didn't even have to google that.

Every year our local football league has a world cup tournament, which clubs enter as a country. Just a fun pre-season comp to get ready for the season ahead.

About 5 years in a row we nominated to be Burkina Faso, each year we got told we were England

If you went there for a party would that be a Ouagadougou do?

Would love that to be Hendo's next managerial appointment if he leaves the Dollybirds.

Absolute banger of a national anthem. I've had it as my ringtone for years.
