Geography literacy...

Well Africa hates you too bitch!
Well, doesn't know me, so probably doesn't care. And I do admit that I should start looking a bit at the African geography so I might find my way around there and not go completely wrong every time I try to locate one of the African countries. For most of them I don't even know in which part of Africa they are... Too many countries for one continent for my brain capacity. :eek:

Well, knowing where it is wouldn't help her in the game.

However, out of respect for Chivas Regal, I am going to modify my earlier statement.

As a bona fide Scot living in England....

Africa has 40 nations, Europe has over 30, I believe possibly even more than Africa.

Africa has more than 40 nations, I thought it had 50 actually.
 
I still have the opinion that Europe has a similar amount of nations cut into it. Wait didn't the test say there was 48 nations?

Ummm... since the test results scored on a basis of x number of countries out of 45, I would presume that 45 would be the correct count.
 
I'd say cookies, but Aeroil will steal them.... Or a motorcycle, but shipping from the UK is a bit prohibitive... How about lovely wonderful salacious details of your last date with Andante?
 
This is a bit easier.

It also has a bit more in it - you can do Geography, State Capitals in the US, and The European Union (link has a lot more than just geography), and it's fairly interesting. I liked the anatomy section the best, though it's difficult to see many of the areas you need to identify.

Give it a try, if you're bored.

You want alot for a for a few jokes!!

They had better be good......or do I mean bad :confused:

Edit to add: Snowy if you read the oral servitude thread the details of some of our last date are there!

So how many terrible lawyer jokes are the details worth? I have a real need to annoy Marquis :p

After several attempts and a little reverse psychology I have finally made 45/45 :D

I tried putting every country in the wrong place first, which is actually harder than you think, the next attempt I got them all correct.

I have never been able to figure out how to make things appear on a Lit page from another site, but heres the link to my scores.

Europe still seems easier, even if Africa doesn't have so many more countries than Europe, but I seem to remember the European geography better. Wait, maybe it's because of travelling? Or because they put more value on German students learning European geography than African geography at school? Or both? At least this number of nations gives me hope that some day I may be able to at least tell if it's west or east Africa (for Africa I always confuse those directions...)
