A short two-minute game that tests your ability to locate randomly selected countries on a global map. Your scores also go towards your country's average score.
I got 7 outta 10
it harder than it sounds :) |

7/10? You either took a load of geography courses, got really easy countries, or I just ing suck at geography.
Any of those are equally likely. |

I took this test 3 times and am beginning to suspect that there's some serious patterns. All 3 times, despite how it comes up with "random" countries, I got Micronesia, Zambia, Swaziland, Vanua, and Mozambique. Maybe it was just an odd statistical anomaly, but then again, perhaps the site is quite against the fact that I'm american? :p
My random knowledge of supposedley "random" countries is horrible though. On the first try, I got a 2/10, on the second, I got a 1/10, and on the third attempt, I got a 4/10. Not so impressive. Though, I could place which region of the world each country was from, if that counts for anything. I don't really remember taking geography in school, actually - the public school system of the US is far more geared toward informing us of countries that are politically active (i.e. pretty much just Europe).
Oh well. |
