36 Clever Typographic Icons Of Countries, How Many Can You Guess Correctly?

Bahrain-based art director Faraz Manzoor has come up with an interesting project that features names of countries visualized as icons + letters. The phonetic pronunciation of the icons combined with a few letters of the country name completes the riddle.

For example, the letters TUR + a key icon = TURKEY. The fin of a shark + LAND = Finland. A bell icon + GIUM = Belgium. Faraz used Adobe Illustrator to create these typo-icons. Check out the project below. How many can you guess correctly?
