Verbal sentence practise

Todah I begin practising verbal sentences and learning new words:

1. أَأَنْتَ مِنَ الْفِلِبِّيْنِ؟ Are you from the Philippines?
   لَا, أَنَا مِنْ إِنْكِلْتِرَا No, I am from England.
2. من أين أنت؟ Where are you from?
   أَنَا مِنَ الْهِنْدِ I am from India.
3. مِنْ أَيْنَ حَامْدٌ؟ Where is Hamid from?
   حَامِدٌ مِنَ الْبَانُ Hamid is from Albania.
4. مَنْ مِنَ الْصَيْنِ؟ Who is from China?
   خَالِدٌ مِنَ الْصِيْنِ Khalid is from China.
5. أَيْنَ ذَهَبَ عَبَّاسٌ؟ Where did Abbas went?
   ذَهَبَ عَبَّاسٌ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ Abbas went to the house (or Abbas went home).

I am a little confused with the exercises above. I don't see that the answers to questions 1 to 4 beginning with a verb. In fact, they begin with a noun or pronoun. Thus, why are they called verbal sentences and not nominal sentences? They do, however, sound like a verbal sentences. Well, I'll just have to figure it out later, إِنْ شَاءَ الله. The answer to question 5, however, does begin with a verb :)
