•Start by thinking of a number, any number.
•Now, multiply that number by 9.
•If the result is a multi-digit number, add its digits together to come up with a new number.
•If that new number is still a multi-digit number, add its digits together to come up with yet another new number. Continue doing this until you end up with a 1-digit number.
•Once you have a 1-digit number, subtract 5 from it.
•Now, using the standard numbering of the English alphabet (where 1 is A, 2 is B, and so on), find the letter corresponding to your number.
•Next, think of a European country that begins with that letter.
•Then take the last letter of that country and think of an animal that begins with that letter.
•Finally, take the last letter of that animal and think of a color that begins with that letter.
How did I know you were going to say that? Because no matter what number you pick (except 0) the end result will always be 9.

But my animal was Koala, and the colour Aquamarine. It seems likely that an unspecified animal starting with 'K', (eg. kangaroo, koala, kudu, kakapo, killer whale, komodo dragon), and an animal of the colour beginning with the last letter in that animal name, will exist in Denmark, (that's if you can think of a colour starting with that letter).
There are no atheists in terrorist training camps.
