To those that dont understand the joke. In 1991 the hutu ethnic group in rwanda started exteminating the tutsi minority in rwanda in the rwandan genocide, as much as 1000000 tutis were exterminated and despite the fact that the UN said that gencides such as the holocaust will never happen as long as the UN is around they ignored Rwanda and let all the tutsis get killed

haha thats great!

[@schuleisaus]

EXLM Aquarius almost true; the fight vs the uk is pretty much the only enemy we couldn’t blitz through. Blitzkrieg is a form of war which contains plain attacks and fast tank/ infantry follow up. Like vs Poland, france, Belgium, Netherlands,... we never beat the uk, we never fought in a blitzkrieg vs them.

Just to let you know a couple pronunciations you got wrong: Lesotho is pronounced with two long o's - "Le-soo-too" In Kiribati's language things written ati are pronounced "us" so the last syllable is "bus" instead of "bati" - "Cure-i-bus"

I practiced it so much that I could even name all of them without a map. Unfortunately it’s been about a year since I graduated high school so I would need to practice this again if I wanted to name all of them.

I got 84 officially. It should have been 85 but I couldn't spell Bosnia and Herzegovina. I drew some surprising blanks on some. I mean, I didn't manage to get Germany (!) yet I managed to get Lesotho. Would have got "republic of congo" if it had occurred to be to put "republic of" in front of it. However, considering most countries of the world don't have much relevance to me personally, it's not surprising that I didn't even know the names of some of them or that I wouldn't manage to remember them on a timed quiz. Quite a few of them I'd recognize and even know where they are if someone mentioned them. They just never came to mind when trying to list them.
