The hardest Geography quiz ever made (Sporcle)

This was taken from my stream on April 12th, 2022! Catch me live Monday to Friday here: / northernlion
I love going back to Sporcle once every 4 months and seeing if my brain has aged!!!

[@reevo59]

‘I can’t think of a European country that starts with united’ he says after guessing that the United Kingdom was the most populous country in Europe. Never change NL

[@notloganparker]

Takes me back to when he said he loves England so much he wishes it was real. I think he really might not know that it exists.

[@Nick-xu7ns]

He also only got the UK on the map quiz because he was trying to type Ukraine. There’s a good chance he’s completely unaware it exists.

Chad’s recurring prominence in this ep is comedic

[@user-nx5yr8mh8m]

Staring at Chad's glorious visage as egg couldn't guess it was maddening

[@judgesaturn507]

The country Chad actually kind of looks like the chad meme

[@dsVektor]

The African round at 12:15 had me rolling. He litearally typed every country around the region itself. And the capital of Botswana.

[@x10018ro]

How did he not know Chad, I'm stunned. The shape of that country is permanently burned into my brain.

[@AconiteO0o]

This was a real good one. A tip! - Myanmar used to be named Burma- - so you'll know it by Burmese food!!

[@gyuziburcsany]

I searched for this in Google Maps in Europe (just Europe), and there are like four hits total, of which one is in Budapest and definitely isn't a Burmese restaurant, but rather Thai.

20:25 - orthogonal means connected along an edge, the better term to use would be diagonally adjacent

[@diggitydingdong]

Specification would give away that it's probably diagonal, even though orthogonal isn't possible given the clue. I agree its probably better to specify

[@Quinto-bean]

When in doubt, guess South Cincinnati

[@Zalied]

he guesses skiping steps making some clues redundant. "if finland is in this quiz..." was pointless since we already random guessed france the quiz really expected you to solve it in a very specific order

[@amariucaicosmin9885]

The cliffhanger at the end, hyping us for poggs next sporcle video

[@lachlansmith7398]

'We quadrupled the average.' Well, factoring in ALL 9 attempts, you averaged 46%. So no, you didn't quadruple it. You didn't even double it...

[@liesalllies]

If you want to be generous you can discard the one where he accidentally put Bolivia in the wrong box. But yeah lol.

[@robinvik1]

I like how some of the tips are just "Iceland is in B3" and some of of them are like "If there is a country that starts with E in row 4, then there will also be a country that starts with M"

[@prgn7]

This entire video was me screaming

When contemplating the most populated country in Africa, I immediately thought for sure either Egypt or South Africa. Not even close dude. Egypt only has 100 million people. South Africa only has 59 million (shocking to me). But Nigeria has over 200 million people. Two thirds of the entire population of the United States, is in a country that's only a third larger than Texas.

[@gyuziburcsany]

Their capital, Lagos, has a metro population that is higher than the entire state of New York.

What's the name of the quiz on Sporcle?

[@RalorPenwat]

18:45 Yeah that's pretty bs. Diagonal is not adjacent

[@lukaf5]

Why not? In chess the king is moving to adjacent squares. Also it almost always is specified in the MORE INFO field of the quiz.

[@quillenkai6714]

there’s a how to play section of about fifteen words that says that adjacent includes diagonals which nl neglected to read.

If B1 needs to be a two word asian island country, timor leste should still work for it as well. Weird that they would end it with a potential double answer (even if it isnt the entire island it still fits the definition of an island country as it doesn't have any land on a continental mainland)

[@REEEEEEEEE_bs]

Maybe it doesn’t count because of the dash (Timor-Leste)?
