Take the geography challenge. Represent your country and identify 10 randomly selected countries.

Liechtenstein is currently number one.
The US is at 147.
The top US state is New Jersey.

Sorry, you have now decreased your country's score!!!!

I should have said I was from another country. On my mistakes, I was actually closer than I thought I was!

Wow, I'm horrible at Geography! I picked 0 in the poll, but I actually got one right: The United States. I didn't count that one tho.


It was funny when it asked for Madagascar and I picked Italy.

my problem is Africa - always has been. too many little countries! i got 2 right the 1st time, & 4 right the second time...but the 2nd time i had several large countries, & the 1st time i had a lot of little ones, some i had never heard of... & i'm a former travel agent
if they don't have an airport, i don't know 'em!

Awesome site, Bumpy! Thanks!
I got 5/10 but I was REALLY close for most of the ones I missed. I was given all these tiny African and European countries.

I guess I'm a ding bat, but I can't figure out how to play this. Do you have to join the site first?

No, you don't have to join, but the game is really cumbersome. I knew exactly where 9/20 of my questions were, but you have to click on the "pins" and the angle of view makes it hard to determine which pin is sticking in which country if there are a cluster. It was very frustrating!
