Just in case anyone did not know, Swaziland became Eswatine in April 2018. I only learned of it when I got a coin with Eswatine rather than Swaziland! Thought y'all would like to know.

However, I'm wondering how we got to Liberia from Swaziland -> South Africa. What did I miss? I think we can pull off South Africa -> St. Helena, but not Liberia. Thoughts?

 

I thought that also, until I looked at the world map, and using a straight edge, it does appear that a straight line across the water can reach from South Africa to Liberia. That is using the modern day country of South Africa rather than the borders of ZAR back in the 1890s.
