It works best if you use the dot in the centre as the focus. The country you picked should start flashing so if it was the wrong one you can click again.

My first one sucked - I didn't know Belarus and most of the Micronesian ones. Second was a bit better but still some mix-ups in Central America and Africa.
Third one was best but to be fair I had a few easy ones like Tanzania, Morocco and Denmark. 30%-50%-70%
Still, downloaded political map to brush up on my geography - I used to be so good at it [img]redface.gif[/img]

I got 9 out of 10. I should get 10 because the thing said I choose bosnia instead of croatia. I know where croatia is. Blah!

It's good to know you know where my country is ;)
At this time I should point out that there is no such thing as the Holy See. What they mean is Vatican, or the Holy Seat. And it isn't even called that officially... I think someone botched this one big time.
Oh, and my score is up to 9 :D Damn Swaziland/Zimbabwe...

My second run with a globe sitting next to me... I got 7 out of 10 and boosted the US's score by the same amount I dropped it. So I broke even - yay!

I know, I know... things are getting pathetic when that's worth cheering for... ;)
