Numerous Facts

One I in Ireland, one country beginning with the letter Q, Two hands of a clock, two U's in Timbuktu. Three primary colours, three dimensions of power, Four seasons of the year, sixty minutes in an hour. Five acts in a Shakespearean play, six zeros in a million, World population has surpassed seven billion. Eight bits in a byte, nine lives of a cat, The Ten Commandments, eleven apostles excluding the rat. Twelve days of Christmas, thirteen is unlucky for some, Fourteen countries border China, North Korea is one. Fifteen players in a rugby team, sixteen states in Germany, Seventeen is a prime number, dial 999 in case of an emergency. Eighteen holes in a golf course, nineteen letters in Newtownmountkennedy, Twenty is half of forty, to think is brain chemistry. Twenty-one dots on a dice, twenty-two cities in Maine, The number twenty-three enigma, the world is full of pain. Twenty-four hours in a day, twenty-five percent is one quarter, Twenty-six letters in the alphabet, Africa needs clean water. Twenty-seven books in the New Testament, twenty-eight member states in the EU, Twenty-nine core muscles, always remember to stay true. Thirty seconds in half a minute, thirty-one states in Mexico and one federal district, Thirty-two counties in Ireland, I’m just being realistic.
