You all know I like geography, right?

Well, I really like geography. When my geography knowledge is being tested I even get a little adrenaline rush. I love it! Recently, I have taken a few challenges which I would encourage others to explore as well. The first test was to see how many countries I could name in 5 minutes. I hand wrote 67 correctly spelled country names in 5 minutes. Then I decided I would just try to write out as many countries as I could remember without timing myself. I named 165 different countries. There are approximately 193 countries in the world (the number varies according to different sources). I'd say that's not bad.

After talking about geography so much lately I'd say the number of countries I could name has probably increased. I'll have to try it.
