Well, I assume that this is neither a repost or the wrong place...

You have 10 minutes to remember as many of the 192 United Nations member states as you can.

I got 90. And I missed Indonesia...

    But I forgot the full name of Bosnia, I thought Ecuador had a Q in it, and I didn't know that Democratic Republic of the Congo had a "the" in it.

    I'm quite proud of the fact that I resisted the temptation to look at the giant map of the world we have in the wall next to the computer.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Oh dear ... 49. I can't believe the ones that I missed. I'm sooo dim.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    73 - I blame my bad spelling
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Hmmm...could only name 55 off the top of my head, so would have been better if I'd looked at the list first....
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    39 !
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    166

    I got 68, I didn't realise there was a list to look at first :o I probably would have got more if I'd looked at the list as I'm pretty good at immediate recall things like that.

    I just couldn't be arsed to read it. Anyway, when I did read it afterwards, there were countries on there that I'd never even heard of. Surely if you read it first, it's just a memory test whereas just going for it actually tests what you know. Having said that, I forgot Italy and I definitely know that it's a country. Hmm. Gonna fuck off now. I'm waffling shite.

    There's a link near the bottom of that page I think. The link is to the 245 countries of this world - which in some ways is slightly easier.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    i didnt look at the list first

    i would have known how many i knew then, would i?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Just to show it can be done!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    High five.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    My dad would probably be very happy to know that those geography pop quizzes he used to subject us to on long trips came in useful for something.

    you're not supposed to look at the first list....but you can if you like. but whats the point?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    76...wasted like 2 minutes trying to spell "Kazakhstan". Thank you, Borat.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru

    Considering i thought prague was in Spain and you could get a spleen in your leg (until i was told otherwise), i think i've done rather well!!!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru

    Hahahaha. I did that. Didn't manage it though.

    Therefore, I got 38. Which is better than I thought I'd do!
