Globle is a fun and challenging geography game that tests your knowledge of countries around the world. Every day, you have to guess a mystery country using clues and a globe that shows how close or far your guesses are. The fewer guesses you make, the better your score will be. You can also share your score with your friends on social media and compare your performance with other players.

But sometimes, guessing the mystery country can be hard, especially if you are not familiar with the region or the name of the country. That's why we are here to help you with some hints and tips for today's Globle (May 9).

Hint 1: Begin with a T
The first hint is that the mystery country begins with the letter T. This narrows down your options quite a bit, as there are only 14 countries in the world that start with T. Some of them are very well-known, such as Turkey, Thailand, or Taiwan, while others are more obscure, such as Turkmenistan, Tuvalu, or Togo.

Hint 2: Country is one word.
The second hint is that the mystery country is one word. This eliminates some of the countries that start with T but have more than one word in their name, such as Trinidad and Tobago, Timor-Leste, or The Bahamas.

Hint 3: A total of ten letters
The third hint is that the mystery country has a total of ten letters in its name. This further reduces your choices, as only four countries that start with T have ten letters: Tanzania, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Transnistria.

Hint 4: Country in Central Asia
The fourth and final hint is that the mystery country is located in Central Asia. This is a region that comprises five former Soviet republics: Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. It is bordered by Russia to the north, China to the east, Afghanistan to the south, and Iran and Turkey to the west.

Tajikistan is a landlocked country with a population of about 9.5 million people. It has mountainous terrain and a continental climate with hot summers and cold winters.

In the 19th century, Tajikistan became part of the Russian Empire and later the Soviet Union. It gained its independence in 1991 after the collapse of communism.

The war ended with a peace agreement that established a power-sharing system between different factions.

Today, Tajikistan is a presidential republic with a dominant single-party system. The current president is Emomali Rahmon, who has been in power since 1994. He has faced criticism for his authoritarian rule and human rights violations. Tajikistan faces many challenges, such as poverty, corruption, terrorism, drug trafficking, environmental degradation, and water scarcity.
