I think he meant the languages sound similar to him? FYI, plenty of places in the US feel, look, and sound just like Mexico. There are places where you can't get by without Spanish (but English is optional). We don't technically have an official language in the US, anyway.

Adorably competitive. I like how Zach is alternately slightly bemused and yet supportive of Alastair's win. It's OK, Zach, I think most of the US couldn't have done better. Alastair is just a bit better at this geography stuff. I am really liking these quizzes. The reasoning, the arguing and the camaraderie is always charming. Watching you guys is so much fun. Carry on with these quizzes. Love to you both!!!

Things to help you remember Europe: ▪︎ SloVENia is next to VENice ▪︎ BeNeLux ▪︎ Baltic States: Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania ▪︎ Austro-Hungarian Empire ▪︎ Switzerland & Austria form a dumbbell ▪︎ Montenegro (Black Mountain) is next to Albania (White Land) ▪︎ The first country Germany invaded in WW2 was Czechoslovakia, then the Netherlands, then Poland.

[@jean-alexandre5496]

As a European (French) I've been finding this video so amazing, and also sometimes a bit frustrating or irritating sometimes! First being like "I alway mix up Switzerland and Sweden" OMG that's sooooo irritating xD It's like those who mix up Autria and Australia. But all in all, you both did better than I would have imagined :) We have this stereotypical idea in Europe that Americans suck at Geography, but all in all it wasn't that bad at all on your part! You even beat me on the Balkans states. Appart from Croatia and Slovakia, I always get mixed up with those. Here are some tips to improve your score next time : - About Poland, you told you got interested in WWII history, and Poland played a huge part in the beginning of the conflict by being invaded by Nazi Germany. So yeah, Poland is this relatively big state sharing a relatively huge border with Germany. - Then not knowing that Monaco is a state city in southern France, common! This state is well known for its abundance of wealth (second wealthiest on the planet per capita) on a very tiny state often called "le rocher" ("the Rock") on the French Riviera. - For the Baltic states there is an easy way to remind them : they are three small states placed in alphabetic order from north to south. First Estonia, then Latvia, then Lithuania. - Then, to know where to put Slovakia in regards to the Czech Republic, just remember that those two countries used to be one called "Czechoslovakia". So the Czech Republic and Slovakia share a boundary between each others. - Also, about Andora : did you know that Andora is a principality who's head of state are two co-Princes, one coming from Spain and one coming from France as it sits between France and Spain. The one who comes from France simply is the French President, who currently is Emmanuel Macron. So Emmanuel Macron is President of the French Republic and Co-Prince of Andora (until his mandate as French president ends). => But all in all well done ! If you visit Europe, please don't stick to Italy though. Although there are some amazing historical monuments and so on to see in Italy, there are a lot of other amazing stuffs and cities to see in Europe. Paris is the most visited city in the world, and France is the most visited country in the world. There are loads of things to do and see in France and I'd be glad to help you out if you're in needs there. Then from Paris you can jump into the Eurostar (high speed train that goes under the channel tunnel) to get to London, which is also an amazing city. Then you can get back the Eurostar again to visit Amsterdam, the capital city of the Netherlands. The whole city is a Unesco world heritage known for its canals and historic houses. It's also well know for being the capital of one of the most tolerant country on earth (first country to introduce gay mariage in the world, first country to legalize marijuana in the world and so on...). Berlin is also worth a visit, so is Copenhagen in Danemark and Stockholm in Sweden. Lots of things to do in Europe and I would be the thrilled to see videos of your trip here :) Take the chance while the Euro is so weak compared to the USD right now (sadly for us though, thanks to crazy Putin and his nonsense war).

I’m a little late to the party, but I wanted to tell you, I really enjoyed watching and I think you did very well. You’re not dumb. Nobody knows everything and people have individual strengths in different topics. To continue to be curious and willing to learn is more important than anything. Lots of love from Germany ☀️

[@danw1952]

Both of your geography challenges were exceptionally fun videos to watch. Each of you worked through those maps with intelligence and great humor. You should be proud that you did so well. I particularly enjoyed seeing Zach cuddling Alastair at the end as that's a lot more intimacy than we usually get to see from the P-Gs. You always know this is one rock solid couple but it is great to see it confirmed.

Lichtenstein is a city in Switzerland. Dozens of Lichtensteinians cried out in pain I bet. 😂

[@dewellspringer7950]

Kardashians are Armenian ancestored . Belarus (Yellow Russia) ruled by a dictator that is under Putin's thumb. Moldovans are ethnically Romanians that were forcibly taken into the Soviet Union by Stalin. You guys did much better than most Americans. You all are such a joy to watch. I think it is great you all are focusing on one or two countries for your trip. Both Greece and Italy have so much to experience you could be in either one and it would take years to full explore either one. it used to frustrate me when 30 years ago when my Japanese students would go to Europe and do a city a day in different countries and end up not really experiencing the culture, food and history. When history is told well it is always a lot of interesting, dramatic and sometimes funny stories.

[@ralphwellington2434]

We really enjoyed these two Geography quizzes. We have been to the US several times so know most of the states but thought you guys did really well on Europe. The Balkans are all quite new and not many Europeans would get them. The city states are real independent countries which through history have managed not to be swallowed up by their big neighbours, and are like the tiny US states. The Vatican State used to cover most of Central Italy but when the modern Italy was created the Pope lost his territory and was finally given the Vatican City as his country by Mussolini. Years ago we went to Vegas and we saw the Shania Twain concert, including her coming in on a motorbike and her horse as well. Have followed you two for a couple of years, but this is our first comment, sorry it is so long! Keep up the good videos. Ralph and Keith. England.

[@L0LrevneD]

Took the quiz myself and now I understand why Zach felt like the quiz grades unfairly 😂. I got most SE European countries wrong but I think I deserved a higher grade cause most countries in Europe as a whole I either got right first try or second.

[@kalegolas]

The ”sisters” are five :) Iceland and Denmark to, they are The North countrys, and Denmark, Sweden and Norway is even more together as Scandinavia. The reason to that at least Norway, Sweden and Finland is close friends is because they al was Sweden earlier, Sweden lost Finland to Russia and then Finland later became an own country. The exact story behind hos norway became an own country I’m not sure but it was without war 1905 anyway. I notice btw that the baltic countrys seems hard for you guys, they are Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

all right now i know how i did, fortunately i am close to Alastair's score, but i probably had the same problem as both of you, i always been confused with the Baltic states and the Balkans but through your "process of elimination" i did fairly well but it is true what i said about eastern europe, they are always forgotten

Alastair, I do not watch the Kardashians, but just by the last name, I could tell they were Armenians not Albanians. Please stop using the excuse that u were born in Mexico for your lack of knowledge of the USA States. You went to High school Herr & West Point. Zach once again, you are the average American & you knew a lot more about Europe than most. Bravo

You had no problems identyfying all neighbours of Poland but not Poland itself ???😭😢😥. Other than that you did very good. Many Americans would have problems to identify anything on this map, I'm afraid 😉

Zachary and Alistair, I still enjoy watching Coffey and tequila because it normalizes gay relationships. People can see that Hugh Kaz are just normal people in a relationship and who you sleep with really doesn’t matter. It has to do with your relationship to each other the love that you have for each other, and that certainly comes through but it is great because usually American students really suck at US history, world history they really suck at and it’s a shame those who fail to remember the past are doomed to repeat repeat it. Those was a Spanish philosopher that said that I can’t remember his name. You can look up the quote, if you don’t remember the past your gym to repeat it thanks guys you’re awesome keep up the great work good content five star rating!!!! Jeff
