We didnt have maps when I was in school
There was England in the center of theuniverse and our colonies
Everything else was "to be conquered"
Oh and France was marked with a big red X

Anaxagoras -> RE: How many did you get right? (12/4/2011 1:42:40 PM)

I got 73% (nine wrong) or 85% after doing the corrections. Not a good result for a European but my excuse is that I live in the far side of the Western portion so never took much interest in those new fangled East European statelets. [8D]  Did better in the Middle-East test probably cause its in the news so much.  [:)]




ChatteParfaitt -> RE: How many did you get right? (12/4/2011 2:24:05 PM)

I got 82% after corrections.

Not bad for an old bird who doesn't care for the news and hasn't been in school since Nixon was president.

Got them all, I had a little trouble remembering between Kyrgyzstan & Tajikistan. But then I remembered that there are Tajiks in Afghanistan, so I got them figured out.

Are you sure it was not "cross hairs"/ survey marker?




samboct -> RE: How many did you get right? (12/4/2011 9:08:17 PM)

I got 79% the first time through....I can't keep which Baltic country was where and what Czechoslavakia and Yugoslavia broke into throw me.

Winterapple -> RE: How many did you get right? (12/4/2011 10:31:09 PM)

Well, I eventually got them all right.
Northern and southern Europe I could
do and countries like Latvia and Estonia.
But a the old Soviet bloc countries were
harder much harder. I kept wanting to put
Belarus closer to Greece for some reason.
No Luxembourg and Lichtenstein.
Ashamed I didn't do better. Will work on it.

Easy. 100%. I won’t spend too much time crowing about it, though because I’ve been fascinated by maps since I was seven and geography is a strong point of mine. I will point out, though, that they forgot Luxembourg, Lichtenstein, Andorra, San Marino, Monaco, and Vatican City.

Another easy 100% although I admit that I'd be in trouble if I actually had to spell some of those names.




ilearn -> RE: How many did you get right? (12/17/2011 9:14:38 PM)

I did even worse on the middle east test.
