I have a 105/111

[Richardo]

1. I love LynneSin's geography quizzes...BRB

Lousy Balkans and former Soviet Republics... 93/111 x(

[Guy_Montag]

2. 110/111

Got Latvia & Lithuania the wrong way round. :spank:

[BlueJazz]

3. I got the same score..LynneSin...

Damn, fairly hard test for us dumb Americans!

[Th1onein]

4. 31/111

Bad, I know, but most of what I know of geography of Europe I learned by trial and error while taking this test.

Aghhhh!

[cheezus]

5. If we gave the europeans the same test

only with a map of the U.S, could the identify the states?

[LynneSin]

6. Probably better than we could of Europe

I mean, those of us here on DU are probably more knowledgeable in geography than the average American. But they have studies that showed that Americans can't even point out Canada or other simple questions, on a map.

[Guy_Montag]

8. I can just about cope with the coasts, but

I get lost in the mid-west & that's never good.

[cheezus]

10. I can handle everything west of the mississippi

Because that's my region - I see it in weather maps all the time. The northeast kills me... they're all so small.

It's not that Americans are bad at geography, it's just that we have a culture of not caring about things that aren't local

[Guy_Montag]

11. I forgot about the north east

that would probably get me too.

[Zero Gravitas]

13. Lost?

you got a purty mouth, boy!

(que banjo music)

[Guy_Montag]

15. heh heh heh

:scared:

[Kellanved]

25. I was able to identify most US states

The Mid-West gave me trouble.
Anyway, a fair challenge would be to identify all Nations on the North-American continent.
:evilgrin:

Oh and yes: I scored perfect in this quiz (had to guess a few of the Balkan states).

[MAlibdem]

7. 110/111

mixed up Lativa and Lithuania...

[muriel_volestrangler]

24. Handy hint

The 3 baltic states are in alphabetical order, going down.

[Donkeyboy75]

9. An even 100/111

Worse than I thought I'd do...

:cry:

[Wilber_Stool]

12. I think I'll change my name to

Ugly American. Where the FUCK is Russia?

[tom_paine]

14. 106/111

Tripped up by the dreaded Solakia/Slovenia Conundrum!

:evilgrin:

[hatrack]

16. 108 - Damn the Balkans!! nt

[NoPasaran]

17. Quiz over... Perfect Score!

Take that, you chocolate makers!

[tom_paine]

19. Wow, dude...well done!

:toast:

[Endangered Specie]

18. 91/111... The south east ones really get jumbled in my head

[Ganja Ninja]

20. I got 107 out of 111.

I screwed up on the Baltic states.

[Padraig18]

21. 108

Luxembourg is so darned small that I hit France on the first click! :P

[Atlanticist]

22. Did both USA and Europe

Got 109/111 on Europe - Baltics again

Got 146/150 on USA - mixed up Kentucky/Tennessee and Vt/NH

[aldian159]

23. perfect score!

But I'm a college kid enrolled in a European Geopolitics class, so I have an unfair advantage.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

26. Purrrrr-fect

Thanks to me remembering these facts:

- The order of the Baltic ex-Soviet countries
- The fact that Ukraine is BIG
- What the hell is Slovenia

[jpgray]

27. 102--Balkans nailed me, I missed Latvia (nt)
