Starting from the A at the top of the ring, move clockwise around the word AROMATIC, returning to the letter A. Along the journey, spell out all countries of the world that start with each pair of consecutive letters: AR, RO, ... CA
Some consecutive letter pairs may not yield any countries
Glad you liked the idea. It was hard to find an 8-letter word that generated countries for each pair of consecutive letters. If you play the sequel, you'll see I managed to do one pair better. But I have yet to find a word where all pairs yield answers.
