Yes, the photo is real

I correctly guessed the countries run by seven of these men, and the names of six of them. Without checking the internet, who can you identify? If you guess everyone right you win $2, payable live or via Paypal--provided I believe you didn't use outside sources. So no one will win. But try anyway!

I am proud to say that my president is the second-happiest man in the photo, and I thank the Agence France Presse for this and many other fun photos that you can see by poking around their website.
