Nobody knows where anything is...
 
There was another thread where London was positioned in Norfolk by Americans. In the interests of fairness and trans-Atlantic good will...

I was always pretty good at geography. I think I could place all 50 states and most countries.

But dang if I can find my glasses.:O:

That was kinda funny. :haha:
Not many can keep up with geography considering how fast some countries change hands. The fifty states of America is a different matter. They've been constant for over two-hundred years. Well, at least since the last territory voted for statehood.:)
It should get easier after everything becomes The United States of Earth.:03::arrgh!:

Though in all fairness it's one thing to know about countries an one thing to know about where states in certain countries are, or how many here (Germans excluded) know how many states Germany has and where they are located?:cool:

I just looked at a map...good lord my US state knowledge is rather off. I got some in the roughly right location but just a bit off to one side...and others are, well, completely Dixied up... :haha:

I see ICBMs but no Area 51, this map is not up to date as Area 51 is now recognised that it dose exist.

Area 51 is so 1942, it's Area 52 where it's all at now. :rock:

Lol, # 2 is awesome. :haha:

So, at the next Subsim Convention we will have a geography faceoff contest, between the Americans and the Europeans... we'll settle this for once and all.:cool:

STEED 02-17-14 08:47 AM

Nahhhh..everyone knows Area 52 is Loch Ness.

Wolferz 02-17-14 09:06 AM

Everybody knows that our super secret facility known as Area 51 has been moved to District nine.

Nothing on my :ping:

Bosnia and Herzegovina is the one without a number and 5 is Montenegro

And what's Latvia here is actually a part of Russia.
