Holy fucking bookmark Batman, thank you very muc.

[@hugoingelhammar6163]

My own observations from real life travels: - If all cars around you are Mercedez, you are in Albania - If all cars around are pickup trucks, you are in Thailand - If no cars around you, your in Northern Scandinavia

[@trulybuzzy]

nice 👍👍

[@alexofthek]

I’ve been to Albania and that first one is so truw

[@burritodog3634]

second tip applies to USA too lol. maybe "gratuitously large pickup trucks" would be more accurate in that case.

[@mb013962]

And if most of the cars are electric, you’re in Norway

[@dobb2106]

Asia: Bangladesh - dashes on top of letters, green tuk tuks Bhutan - Mountainous, long white flags, white stone blocks, wooden houses Cambodia - Very red dirt, boxy language, RHS drive Christmas island - Australian India - Yellow plates Indonesia - Many flags, 3 sections of text on plates Israel - Hebrew Japan - Black and yellow vertical stripes on poles Jordan - Desserty, white plates, arabic, white long plates Kryg - Red strip on plates Laos - Good luck Malaysia - 2 sections of text on plates, double white middle plates, black stickers on poles Mongolia - Baron, China-esc, bowling pin bollards Palestine - Israel 2 Philippines - Green tint on plate, RHS drive, double yellow middle, segmented concrete roads Russia - BLACK POLE BOTTOMS, many many bollards on an intersection Singapore- Green street signs, clean South korea - Diagonal yellow and black stripes mid way on pole, CIRCLES IN LANGUAGE Sri Lanka - Text looks like fruit Taiwan - Diagonal yellow and black stripes to bottom of pole, double yellow middle lines Thailand - Square shape poles with holes UAE - Desert, rich, arabic Vietnam - Latin

[@ratatoeskr-melodicdarkambi7741]

I really appreciate this! Thx!

[@Venkatxxx]

Vehicles with yellow plates in India is those are rented or commercial. White plates is the common number plate in india

[@jbgamezofficial]

You have earned my respect.

[@choglock4138]

For Laos it's Cambodia with yellow plates (driving on the right, same alphabet than cambodia/thailand)

[@willlllllllb]

Madagascar was my first gold medal because I had memorized almost every piece of street view, including the cows, avenue of the baobabs, a handful of boats, and the invidividual trekkers in cities such as Morondava. It was a nice flex in multiplayer, but the only location I ever used to see back then was the capital, Antananarivo, and it was always directly outside the Queen's Palace

[@trulybuzzy]

haha nice work!

[@ehonda7831]

but WHY

[@cherrycolouredshades]

this clip is ridiculously good and condensed, literally geoguessr teaching speedrun in 20 mins :))

[@trulybuzzy]

Oh it seems you did watch this video! Hahaha

[@bosco440]

Incredible effort! I appreciate the fact that you mostly avoided discussing camera and car metas and focused on what you can actually see in these countries. I learned a lot of little things I hadn't considered before.

[@trulybuzzy]

Thanks! I try to stay away from car/cam gen as much as possible

[@letthebeatr0ck]

I watched all of this and immediately went on to get a 10 on a country streak with no moving, this is great stuff!

[@trulybuzzy]

Hell yeah!!👍👍👍

[@danktrain6572]

Lol i watched it too but too much info for my brain to store

[@writerbill1]

Thank you for this! I saw a comment on another of your videos that helped me a lot: For Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania (north to south ordered): the kilometer markers are 90 degrees to the road (perpendicular) Estonia, 0 degrees to the road (facing the road) Latvia, and 45 degrees to the road (almost like a "V" shape) Lithuania. Thus: Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania are 90, 0, and 45 degrees respectively. I have literally got it right using only this rule more than once now! 😂

[@trulybuzzy]

Correct 👍👍👍

[@burritodog3634]

probably the best beginner geo vid out there! definitely saving this to watch every once in a while as refresher.

[@trulybuzzy]

🙏🙏

[@oh2mp]

Finland is changing those yellow closing lines on the middle to white, but the footage from Finland is so old that it will still be a valid clue for a long time. The best clues are street signs ending "tie" (road) and "katu" (street) which are the most common words in the end.

[@trulybuzzy]

Good to know!

[@jamisonr]

Haven't watched yet, but it's queued for later tonight. I'm holding you responsible if I don't know all countries by the end! :D Congrats on the 1k btw.

[@trulybuzzy]

You definitely will 👍 thanks!

[@dobb2106]

[@trulybuzzy]

Thanks dusk 🙏

[@zhappy]

India usually has white plates, only commercial vehicles have yellow plates and electric vehicles have green plates. (Tip: sometimes trucks have number plate number on side as well which might not be blurred, and the first two letters refers to the state they are from...but trucks can travel long distances so use along with other clues)

[@HarrierGeoGuessr]

Very nice vid and awesome effort for putting it all together! A perfect video for many beginners who are looking for quick tips to ID specific countries on the game. Keep up the great content 😁

[@trulybuzzy]

Thanks Harrier!

[@havanapearson2016]

THIS video is exactly what I needed!!! Thankyou for the help 🙌

[@trulybuzzy]

Np!!

[@nicii179]

incredible video! one thing to add though, i’ve lived in austria my whole life (25 years) and have not once seen a license plate with red writing. there are e-cars with green writing on the plates though. only thing i can imagine that red hue you talk about come from could be from the state symbols that are printed on the plate, a bunch of them have red in them, only vienna’s is majorly red though. idk if they would be big enough to leave a red hue though

[@trulybuzzy]

oh right! I think it comes from a red border around the plate? hard to tell what it's from when it's blurred 😅

[@Krakoww]

ive watched this video and different parts of it a rediculous amount of times but it's help me far too much, thank you very much for this video

[@trulybuzzy]

Glad to hear it! Thanks 👍

[@fkarg10]

Well I copied timestamps from the other guy but added the features to look for in each country. 0:33-Africa: Yellow outside lines and driving on the left in the south, in the centre a lot of red dirt and driving on the right 0:38 Botswana - driving left. Yellow and Black striped thinner poles (for e.g. yield signs) 0:51 Eswatini - driving left. long dry grass 1:01 Ghana - Yellow panelling on Taxis, yellow number plates 1:12 Kenya - driving left. Safaricom stores, red dirt, snorkel on Google car 1:25 Lesotho - driving left. hardly trees around, sedimentary style rock formations 1:38 Madagascar - tricky, lots of different landscapes. French colony -> French language and other indications. Trekkers usually have unique telltales 2:02 Nigeria - greenish tint on number plates, ladder-style power poles (similar to Brazil) 2:18 Senegal - French colony, so long 'French' white dashes on both sides of the road, French bollards, blue number plates 2:34 South Africa - driving left. lots of thin stone fences/walls/gates, green signage and road numbering starting with R and N, yellow outside lines 2:49 Tunisia - French colony, more deserty, black number plates with maybe right strip on the side 3:05 Uganda - driving left. very red dirt, most roads aren't paved. number plates white (front) and yellow (back) 3:17-Asia: 3:19 Bangladesh - Bengali language resembles sanskript with a line across the top. a lot of green tuc tucs. white number plates 3:27 Bhutan - inredibly mountainous, often has plots on the side of the road, long white flags, distinctive wooden architecture. red number plates 3:38 Cambodia - 3:55 Christmas Island 4:02 India 4:28 Indonesia 4:41 Israel 4:48 Japan 4:55 Jordan 5:03 Kyrgyzstan 5:11 Laos ... To be continued. I'll try to keep remembering these first. Don't worry, I'll come back.

[@elmukaltino]

A slight correction for Ukraine: both Russian, Belarusian and Kyrgyz languages have the letter Ы (yep, that’s a single letter), which latter part may confuse people. In Ukrainian I will never follow Ь, but in Russian it’s only found in Ы. Belarusian will have both I and Ы.

[@elmukaltino]

And yeah, good luck finding signage in Belarusian in Belarus…

[@runbo]

Great video! I wonder if you could slightly decrease the size of your camera footage though, because I would rather see more of what's behind you. Half the size would be plenty big enough

[@trulybuzzy]

too late to change it now I'm afraid! sorry about that

Is Eswatini what was formerly known as Swaziland? Or am I way off?? Also I had no idea eswatini is a recognised country (since 1968) on political maps! I thought the only separate enclave in SA was Lesotho.... Which funnily enough, only gained independence AFTER Eswatini in 1966!! Idk I thought that was a big revelation for me so thanks for your content!!

[@trulybuzzy]

Yep it's Swaziland :) The more you know haha

[@havanapearson2016]

@trulybuzzy I've genuinely learnt something today, I am really surprised that Eswatini was granted nationality before Lesotho! Even if only by 2 years. I like to see myself as au fait with the "newest countries" and antithetically, feel well versed in my mapping and general charted depictions of ancient empires. But I realise now, I have been sorely missing knowledge of the interluding epochs!!!

Super funny prank video. Using quick cuts in editing so that as soon as you mention a sign, it cuts as fast as it can away from that image so that you have to go backwards to look at what he was talking about. Either that, or he doesn't know that peoples eyes aren't already looking at the thing that he is about to point out, and that a fraction of a second isn't enough time to locate and analyze the thing he's talking about
