Name All Of the Countries
How many can you get?
79! How did you get so many? You have a map handy? I couldn't even spell that many countries if you even gave me the names.
I managed 110 countries out of 195!
I'm a pretty smart guy irl.Quote:

I got 175, but that's mostly because I've taken this quiz at least 10 times before :p I pick up some new names every time I take it. The map is so cluttered though! There's not much help in it. I forgot obvious ones such as Japan and Czech Republic :}
I'm still holding the record!
Now let's just wait for Yeargdribble to come in.. :colbert:
118. I'm a slow thinker, I hate time limits :cry:
35. :stare:
144. I got so caught up trying to figure out West Africa, Central Asia, and the Pacific that I derp'd and forgot Ireland, Poland, the Czech Republic, and Greece, among a couple others in Europe. lawl. At least I got all the ones in Central Asia :jess:
I got about 67. I've had no sleep and I missed a ton of easy ones so that's probably why.
Apparently my mind wants to forget British people, because it took me until the 30 second mark to enter in United Kingdom.
I forgot some obvious ones like Chile, Belgium, and India.
77. It took me so long to remember how to spell some! And some that I thought were, like Yemen, weren't going through. Apparently I am missing some chunk of history.
91, although I wasted tons of time trying to figure out how to spell a lot of them.
There are tons of countries I've never, ever heard of before, apparently. o__O
I remembered Czech Republic but I forgot how to spell it. :( I suck at spelling.
90 sans help. I got places like the Cape Verde Islands and Liectenstein, but forgot Ireland. Also, the United Kingdom is not a smurfing country! (the first country I entered was Wales and nothing happened :mad2:)
I expected it to be a Scotsman who started with that nonsense tbqh.
195/195.
Gogo geography minor
I got 89, but I completely spaced on most of Asia. I also spent a really big chunk of time trying to enter in Venezuela.

this followed by the four staff in our office spending the first good two/three hours of the day attempting to compile the longest list of countries without looking at a map/googling/cheating etc. hannah did win, though she only got 130ish.
but anyways. that's the end of my story :p
It figures the one to end my joy and vexation would be Bunny. :(Quote:

A lot I remembered from sixth grade geography... Some I remembered because of EoFFers (Bleys for example)
186/195 (no geography academic experience of any kind! Just a world map on the wall my entire life.)
The ones I missed:
Switzerland (really - I've even been there)
Kosovo
St. Kitts and Nevis
Maldives
Timor-Leste
Palau
Micronesia
Marshall Islands
Nauru
Nauru is the only one I had never heard of.
65 :jess: I missed a lot of obvious ones. Isn't there supposed to be a New World Order or something to make this easier for me? These secret tyrants are taking decades.

I tried again just now and got 99.
I always forget ones I got the previous time.
117. I missed a few obvious, including a couple I could've sworn I actually entered in (the Philippines, Turkey, and Czech Republic). I suppose I may have typo'd and not realized it didn't take. Or I could be imagining things.
69.
My strategy was to think of all many sportspeople as I could and put in their nationalities (after I had done the obvious ones, of course).
Did anyone else feel proud when they spelt one of the -istan countries correctly?
I got all of them :p
Up to 173. But this time I missed some I had last time around, so intent was I on remembering everyone in the Caribbean. :p Sorry Belgium, you just suck! Also would have got Solomon Islands if I had tried Solomon instead of Soloman, herpaderp.
I thought I was doing pretty well with 65, but some of you people are just assholes.
My mind blanked too much on Europe; I missed like half of those that I should have put down easily. I got most of Asia though. I probably shouldn't've given up with six minutes left but I got bored. xP
Ha, I got 48 and thinking of just that many was very difficult for me. xD
I didn't even know some of those places existed.
Who says Americans don't know about the world around them! xD
I got all 195 countries today!
So important you need to tell us twice.Quote:

I took this test a second time and got 101/195. Moving up in the world! This time I remembered more obvious ones like India and South Africa.
I'm surprised that one of the few Arab countries I remembered was Azerbaijan. And yet, I forgot where Borat lived for the first one.
Okay so what the hell, England, Wales, Scotland, Holland, they aren't countries all of a sudden?! I barely got 20 :p
Netherlands is the "real" name for Holland. And UK is an umbrella term, I guess?
160 first time. Highest profile names I forgot were Singapore (Sorry Christmas) and Iran (Sorry Bunny)
Azerbaijan = Eurovision!Quote:
