No idea. England?
Logical guess, Bill, but it's not in England.
Huh. I'm totally perplexed. Italy?
Nice try, Mary, but it's not in Italy.

Hint #1: It is not in Europe.
South America?
You are on the right track. The correct answer is a country in South America.
There is a city named Lincoln in Argentina. Is Argentina the country?
That's another very logical guess, Bill, but it's not Argentina.
At least Argentina is a country...Perhaps the entire name of the city is "Lincoln in Argentina"?
Hint #2: The statue was unveiled in 2009 in commemoration of the 200th anniversary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln.
Ops, missed the question. Ecuador?
Since Brazil is the largest I will use that logic. Is it Brazil?
Is it in one of the Americas at all?
I agree with Eva, Ecuador
Kudos to Eva and Gene - it is in the Abraham Lincoln Plaza in Quito, Ecuador.

Eva and Gene, you win best wishes for a wonderful Sunday.
