East Timor One in a Krillion

9 letters · 2 words · ~3s to type · 166 accepted answers on the sheet

Go past the first country or city a classroom map would show. We would type East Timor: One in a Krillion, +100, 9 letters, about 3 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on India, Mexico, or United States — those are Plankton. It is also the One in a Krillion on this sheet, so the rare pick and the typeable pick are the same.
