Woot! Hooray for Benjamin Boukpeti of Togo, who just won bronze in the whitewater kayaking event, the first medal ever for the country. I see from the CIA's map that it does have a river; Wikipedia's map doesn't show one.
On geography I think the CIA can be trusted.
(Note: It turns out Mr. Boukpeti lives in France and has only been to Togo once when he was a child. The Togo Sports and Leisure Ministry sounds pleased but a little bemused.
