It was occupied in 1878 along with Sandžak, although Bosnia was only actually annexed by 1908 while Sandžak was returned to the Ottomans.

Thank you! The Khedivate of Egypt was essentially only a nominal part of the Ottoman Empire at this point and did a lot of conquests of their own, reaching as far as modern-day Uganda and Somalia.

Lesser known fact: Bhutan had exclaves in Tibet that they gained in a war in 1684 and kept until 1959.

Out of curiousity — what was "Sigi"? I can't find it when I look it up because the word is also a stock profile and the OECD's "Social Institutions and Gender Index" ... if any of y'all history buffs could help me out I'd be very grateful lol

From a bit of searching:

Minor native kingdom in Sulawesi, now part of Indonesia, formed by the Kaili ethnic group. Apparently has existed since the 1200s. Didn't do much historically; their animist religion seems cool though. Converted to Islam sometime in the 1600s. Incorporated into the Dutch East Indies sometime between 1900 and 1915, though they were allowed to keep their royal family and borders until the 1930s.

Now all that remains is Sigi Regency in Central Sulawesi and their former capital Biromaru (at least, I think it was their capital).

Amazing quiz! 120/351. I memorized a bunch of those little kingdoms in Africa a while back and I still have some of them in the back of my head.

(Please accept Fouta Tooro for Futa Toro.)
