    I’m never sure how precise the “Can you find this country on the map?” game is expecting you to be. Like, if you point at Lebanon by mistake, is that disqualifying? Or are people just giving up and saying “Idk”? Are they pointing to Latvia and getting confused?

    But if you handed me a world map, I doubt I’d be able to pick out Israel as “a country with multiple internal regions” because the resolution probably isn’t going to give me that info.

      Honestly I’ve always wanted somebody to spring one of those “find a country” tests on me. I’m quite good a geography, I may not be a 100% correct but if you asked me where Botswana was I’d know it’s just north of South Africa.

      I think it would be funny if the guy who did the best on the geography test was also a massive commie.

      Edit: also fyi there are online geography tests where you can to guess the location of a place and it measures how close you go in kilometers so the farther off you got the worse your score is. So if you picked Lebanon when asked where Israel is you’d still score okay.
