North African and Middle Eastern Geography Quiz

[diverescue]

I was recently sent this link, and found it pretty enlightening. This is a drag and drop geography quiz of the Middle East and Northern Africa. Test your knowledge, I timed myself, 2 minutes, 12 seconds...

[Amarillo]

I did not time myself. (Silly me. I thought the website would do that itself.) But I got only 5-6 wrong before finally getting them all right.

100%, 1m 45s. The Stans almost had me until I remembered TUTaKy ("too tacky"):

L-to-R: Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan.

[BOFH]

2 minutes. 1 wrong. Accidentally dropped Bahrain on Qatar. (Had my window small, so the map is really small.)

[Dan90]

1min 16s, -1 (swapped Chad/Niger).

[Tracy]

1min 16s, -1 (swapped Chad/Niger).

Ask Al Gore about hanging chads... :biggrin:

[Ole crusty bastard]

Embarrassing.

[WS-G]

47 s, no errors. Merely an exercise in speed-of-drop-and-drag.

All too easy....
