Display Countries around the World in PowerPoint
You have often heard speakers using sobriquets for countries around the world while addressing the audience or introducing a guest. The audience can relate to statements such as ‘welcome to the City of the Golden Gate’, ‘greetings from Japan – The Land of the Rising Sun’, or Mr XYZ hails from the ‘City of Seven Hills’. It’s easy to guess the names of these places as the sobriquets reveal their salient characteristics.
For example:
- South Africa is called as the ‘Rainbow Nation’ because of its multi-cultural population.
- Belgium is called ‘Cockpit of Europe’ because it has been the site of more European battles than any other country.
- Egypt is known as the ‘Land of Pyramids’ because of its famous pyramids.
Sobriquets can be used in fun trivia, quiz shows or in classrooms. 24point0 PPT experts used our editable PowerPoint maps to create this video that reveals the sobriquets of countries across the world.
