The $1,600 Old Name on the Map pinpoints a DD for Alan to go for & he has $5,200, but his lead over Berek's been cut in half to $400; Cal's gone up to $1,200. The male challenger bets half ($2,600):

In 2003, this name was abandoned in favor of Serbia & Montenegro, which went their separate ways in '06.

"What is Serbo-Croatia?"...temporarily takes 1st place away. Correct: What was Yugoslavia? Finally, on the last What's Your Policy?, he has their DD too & has risen to $6,200, $2,200 behind the titleholder; Cal again has modestly improved to $1,600. Alan wagers $2,300, so for a lead of one Benjamin w/ a total of $8.5K:

On Sept. 25, 1980, the Chinese Communist Party called on all its members to adhere to this policy.

He runs out of time just before saying "What is the Leap Forward?", when it was instead the One Child, so the challengers went 0-for-3 on those. They don't have enough time for either the $1,200 or $1,600 "Tell"s.
