Today I'm playing daily geography games, but they get progressively harder as the video goes on
0:05
And there's a bunch of quizzes here that I've never played before and I'm feeling slightly concerned
0:10
What is a cold bricket? But we're starting off easy with an absolute classic. It's global. Let's go
0:15
So if you don't... Where's me globe? Where's me globe? There it is. Okay
0:19
So if you don't know global, there's a random different country each day. And I guess countries such as Ethiopia
0:25
There you go. And now this color shows us how far away we are from the actual correct country
0:30
So we're not crazily far. I'm going to try Morocco. Morocco. Let's go for it
0:35
There you go. Okay, Morocco's cooler. So maybe somewhere over here. Let's do, let's do Nepal
0:39
Why not? All right, Nepal's a bit closer, but still we're not that close. You know what
0:43
Let's do Russia just to get it out of the way. Right, Russia's cooler. So we're back down maybe this sort of area
0:48
Shall I try maybe like Seychelles? I'm going to try it. All right, Seychelles
0:53
Oh, Seychelles is the warmest so far. Maybe give the Maldives a go in that case
0:58
There we go. Maldives is the warmest so far. So in that case, I guess Sri Lanka is an obvious choice
1:04
Let's give it a go. And there we go. We got it. All right. We kind of wiggled about all over the place there
1:08
But we got there in seven countries, which isn't bad. Now we move on to Worldall. But to make things harder, I've hidden the country outline
1:13
So we don't have anything to visualize. So we've just had Sri Lanka. Let's do it again
1:18
There you go. Sri Lanka. Okay. We are 76% and it is towards the southwest compared to Sri Lanka
1:24
So I guess we maybe work ourselves over to kenya not crazily far away. Let's try that. Oh kenya's quite close
1:31
Wait, is it or is it? 2,300 kilometers away So we've gone too far to the west now, which makes me wonder what if we are back towards the maldives
1:39
I'm trying all the same countries. Here we go maldives further away. Do not tell me it's the seychelles
1:43
Let's give it a go. Okay. Oh, we're close 90% look at this i'm on guess five of six
1:48
So what i'll do if I don't get on this next one We'll show the map and see if I recognize the outline because i'm kind of struggling i'm gonna lie
1:54
I'm worried it might be a territory today, which I'm not as good at. I'm just confused. How is it so far east of Kenya, but so far west of the Seychelles
2:02
And it's downwards towards the south as well. Yeah, I don't really get this one
2:06
I might just try, like, Malawi. Let's give that a go. Okay, where's Malawi
2:10
We're a bit closer. Right, I'm gonna have to show the map. It's just Madagascar
2:14
It's literally just Madagascar. There it is. Okay, I'd have got that on the first go if I could see the outline
2:19
Did I play badly there? The numbers just felt so far away, but I guess this isn't the craziest distance in the world
2:25
I was maybe visualizing it a bit bigger. Yeah, this all makes sense. 1,800 kilometers just felt so much further away, but I guess it is pretty far
2:32
Seychelles is like middle of Indian Ocean. All right, let's see if we can redeem ourselves a bit with travel
2:37
Remember, each of these are harder than the next. So we now have to connect every country between Equatorial Guinea and Zambia
2:44
So I'd love to get a perfect game, which is where you get it in the fewest countries possible
2:47
So what would be the most efficient way of doing this? Should I go from Equatorial Guinea
2:52
So I think Cameroon is more to the north, right? And then does Gabon circle Equatorial Guinea
2:58
I'm worried. I'm going to try. I'm not super confident. Gabon. Okay
3:02
Yes, it does. And Gabon is green, which means it's a perfect country to guess
3:07
Okay. So from Gabon, I'm thinking I can do DRC. I'm going to try it, but it might be just the General Republic of Congo
3:15
DRC. Let's get an idea. Do you know what? I think i'm gonna change it before I click it i'm gonna go just republic of the congo because i'm pretty sure that
3:22
Definitely does border good bond on this side. Let's try it. It does nice and it's green once again
3:27
This is good. See we're not that far away now So i'm hoping this means I can totally avoid drc and just go south instead, but i'm not quite sure
3:35
So I know over here we've got angola and namibia. I can't remember which is at the top
3:39
I think it's got to be angola, right? Let's try it. This might not be a green country. Let's see it
3:43
damn. Yeah, it's orange, which means it's a good guess, but it is not the shortest route. But look
3:50
how close it is to being the shortest route. This is just the shape of DRC, isn't it? I should have
3:55
just gone with the Democratic Republic of the Congo. There it is. So you could have done that
3:59
in three countries. I've shoved Angola in, which was unnecessary. I should have recognized the
4:03
outline that was starting to be created. All right, that's fine. We still did it in under the
4:07
seven guesses by quite a bit. I am a bit sad about Angola though. Now we move on to Countryal
4:12
which is a once again guessing random countries game mode. However, rather than clues related to
4:17
distance of other countries, we get clues based on hemisphere, continent, temperature, etc. So let's do
4:23
Democratic Republic of the Congo to begin with. Okay, so wrong hemisphere. The country we're
4:28
looking for is in the northern hemisphere. It is not in Africa. It has a lower temperature and it's
4:33
pretty north. So it's got to be Europe then. This could be quite a few places in Europe. Should we
4:37
just try Germany? I think we should. Is Germany over 92 million? It might be. Let's do United
4:43
Kingdom instead. It's gonna have a colder average temperature. Yeah, I think that would be a good
4:46
guess. Okay, we've got the correct continent, the correct hemisphere. Population's still low. It's
4:51
southeast of United Kingdom, and it's still colder as well. Right, southeast and colder. That's
4:57
interesting. Try somewhere like Slovakia maybe? Why not? Let's go for it. Okay, west of Slovakia
5:03
still a lower population, so it's got to be a very small country and still colder. I think so
5:07
far though, my guesses have been okay. I think they've each made sense. I'm just a bit confused
5:11
about the coldness because we're heading south east of United Kingdom, but that's going towards
5:15
the Mediterranean, which is generally warmer. Maybe Switzerland then? We could try Switzerland
5:19
I'm not 100% sure what their population's like. Let's try it. Okay, east of Switzerland. Oh my
5:24
goodness, what is this? So east of Switzerland, could I go somewhere like San Marino? You know
5:30
a micro state I would have thought San Marino was warmer but apparently it somewhere around 6 degrees Let try it Yeah San Marino is hotter than the United Kingdom there as you can see They have a bigger population than Northwest I can I can do it
5:45
Should I try Luxembourg then? We'll stay on the smaller countries. Let's give it a go
5:49
Oh my God. It's less populated than Luxembourg. So it's somewhere small. Is it Liechtenstein then
5:54
Liechtenstein. Let's go for it. I think it is, you know. It is. Wow, that was a tough one
5:58
But we got there. We managed seven guesses. Really, I suppose I could have skipped San Marino
6:04
We should have maybe got there in six guesses. But that's okay. I think we did fine. Right, we now move on to Flaggle, which I have played before, but it was a long time ago
6:11
So what would be a good flag to guess? I'm gonna do Canada, because there's a nice amount of red
6:17
And there's just generally red. Ooh, this is not the game I thought it was. This is a different version of the Flaggle I've previously played
6:23
So this must just reveal a portion of the flag, each incorrect guess
6:27
But I think I can just get this flag, right? That's Tanzania, isn't it? So let's go for it. Guess. Yes, it is. Nice. I'm quite good with my flags. This version of flag
6:35
will maybe be easy for me. Okay. This might be the version that I'm thinking of. So let's do
6:39
Canada again. There you go. Guess. Okay. And then what it does is it shows you the bits that are
6:47
correct colors in terms of like the overlap of Canada's flag. So basically whatever the flag is
6:51
has red probably all the way along here. And then it has probably a square of white there
6:57
That's kind of throwing me off a bit. I'm not quite sure. I'm gonna do Haiti. Let's give that a go
7:01
Is this the correct kind of thing? Let's see. No. Yeah, Haiti was a bad guess there. It didn't really give me too much more information
7:08
This is a weird one, actually. It's not really coming to me. It's red all the way across, and then there's gonna be white around here
7:14
Let's do Georgia, because that shows a lot of white, so this might give us some clues
7:19
Right, here we go. We have revealed a crescent moon. I'm trying to think. Is it Uzbekistan? Uzbekistan. No, it's not Uzbekistan
7:26
It's a little bit cheaty that you actually do get to see the flags there. Is it Comoros
7:30
Is that the one I'm thinking of? I think it is Comoros. I think we've got it. Yeah, we have
7:34
There we go. All right, Comoros, quite a difficult flag there. We got that in four guesses
7:38
We should have really got it in three. I don't know why I guessed Haiti. That was a bit stupid
7:42
Speaking of the Comoros flag, by the way, it's a lovely flag, isn't it? There's just a really nice selection of colors there
7:47
Okay, now we're playing Statal. This is where you have to guess US states
7:51
Now, I'm not as good with my US states. Like, I have the outline in front of me, but I do not recognize what this is
7:57
I'm wondering, hmm, let's think about it. Could it be Indiana? I'm gonna try Indiana
8:02
Let's have a go. No, we are not close to Indiana at all. It is over to the west
8:07
Okay, shall I try, I don't know, Oregon? That's over to the other side
8:11
Let's give it a go. Oh, it was Oregon. Cool. Well, we got that one quite quick
8:15
Should we do the bonus round in that case? Can you guess four states near Oregon
8:19
Um, yeah, I think I hopefully can. This is california, right? california, you know it might not be california. No, it is it is it is
8:26
Okay, and then I think washington is around there too. Yep, and i'm not sure what that is and i'm not sure what this is
8:32
I feel like it's one arizona. It's one of the a's right i'm gonna go with arkansas
8:37
Nope, arizona give it a go. Nope. Oh see, this is where my knowledge has fallen apart
8:41
I should not have played the bonus round. I actually don't know. Um, nirvana is near california
8:46
We'll try that one. Nice and then what is the last one? Could it be nebraska
8:50
I actually don't really have any idea. Idaho. Okay, fair enough. Right, similar to what we've just done, this is Neighboral
8:57
Another one I've never played before. List the neighbours of Mali. And there are seven to get
9:02
Hoo-hoo! Okay, there are some tricky ones here, but I think I can be okay
9:08
We've got Burkina Faso. That's this fella here, right? There you go. Very nice
9:12
We have also got Gambia, or The Gambia as it is formally known, I believe
9:16
Let's go for it. Gambia's wrong. What? Oh, that's Senegal. It's... Oh, Jack! Senegal! I got mixed up
9:24
That's really annoying. I'm not gonna zoom out because I feel like that's cheating. I can't remember if it's Libya or if it's Algeria
9:30
I think it's Algeria, but I actually might be wrong. It is Algeria. Good. This one over here is Nigeria, right
9:36
Nigeria. What I really like is how it shakes about. Wait, am I wrong? Nigeria's wrong
9:41
Is that Niger then? Oh, it is. Yeah, I knew that as well
9:45
Okay, down here we've got... Um, I think that's Ivory Coast. Is that Ivory Coast
9:51
Let's give it a go. Yes, it is. Nice. And then this one, uh, is that Guinea
9:57
I think it is Guinea. I'm gonna try Guinea. Let's, let's go for it. Yes, it is
10:01
Nice. So it's just this one I need to get. And I am thinking it is, hmm
10:06
It's a massive country. I should know this. That's Mali. So that's Mauritania
10:10
Yeah, Mauritania. You ready? There we go. So we got all seven in nine tries
10:15
Bit annoyed that I messed up on Niger. What was the other one that I screwed up
10:20
Gambia. So I knew that as well. Yeah, Gambia's the little fella inside. Senegal's the one on the outside
10:25
Okay, it doesn't matter. We are now at some pretty hard level quizzes. This is Geo Connections
10:30
I'll be honest, I don't even know what this one is. I just thought it looked hard, so I moved it later in the game
10:35
Let's see how we play. The objective is to make four groups of four. Each group will share a common link
10:40
Oh, no. So for example, flag of Russia, Canada, US, and China represent the largest countries in the world
10:45
Some connections are harder to find than others. Oh, this could be the hardest game in the video. We will see. Oh my goodness. I'm overwhelmed
10:52
Well, I can see territories i'm gonna click on all of the territories and hope that just non-countries is one of them
10:59
Uh, there you go. And now I submit go on three out of four correct
11:04
It might be something about british territories. That's an american territory So maybe if I go with these three, I can't remember where that is. We'll have to come back to it
11:12
We might be in a bit of trouble with this one. Can we do places in Central America That would be these three And then Brazil for South No Mexico for Central America right Should we give them a submit Let go for it
11:23
Come on. No, and it's not even a three out of the four. I've only got two lives left
11:28
Can we do flags with circles? Do they have ones like that? I mean, kind of
11:32
I'm going for it, you know. Here we go. Yes, flags with circles. Okay, I should have looked for just easier ones
11:37
I'm a bit sad I've only got two lives left. Right, let's actually name the countries and see if anything happens
11:41
So this is Mexico. This is Dominican Republic, I think. That is Denmark, right
11:47
That's Honduras. This, I think, is Tuvalu, but I'm not 100%. That's Haiti
11:53
This one is... Is that Northern Ireland? I'm not 100% sure. This one is a British Overseas Territory
11:59
I'm not sure which one. Then we have Central African Republic, Cyprus, Guam
12:04
and I can't remember where that is either. So is there anything with letters? Anything to do with all the same letters
12:09
Central African Republic, Cyprus. They both begin with C, but then I can't think of others
12:14
This is a great game, though. It's just quite difficult. Haiti, Honduras
12:19
Any more H's anywhere? Possibly. Do we have any more visual ones? We have flags with crosses
12:24
Flags with crosses in them. It's kind of a cross in the Union Jack. It doesn't feel like this is going to be one
12:29
I'm not sure I don't waste my life on it. Maybe we have flags with two colours
12:34
That's these two. Nope. No more. Maybe we have flags with three colours
12:39
That could be Cyprus. Dominica. Uh, this one and then that one
12:43
Yeah, I'm gonna go for it. Submit. No, and it's not even a three out of the four
12:48
So we got a three out of the four at the start with the territories, right? That was here, here, here, and then probably not Guam
12:54
I'm kind of struggling. I'm not gonna lie. So let's just submit our last one with Tuvalu
13:01
There we go. It was stars on flags, plants on flags, and crosses on flags
13:06
They were all visual based. I thought it would be stuff about the actual countries. Plants on flag
13:10
ah okay plants on flags hard i should have got stars on flags and i did get crosses on flags but
13:17
i was too scared to submit it okay i did not do great on those but i have noticed that you can
13:22
create your own here on geoconnections.net so if you want to make some don't make them too difficult
13:27
because i will not be able to do it i might play it as a future video jacksucs at clips 420 at
13:32
gmail.com email them there make sure you specify it's geography themed if you've got a custom
13:36
geography based game from another website you can send that as well doesn't have to be geoconnections
13:40
All right, we are in the most difficult ones of the video here. You see, I did not do very well there
13:45
I'm now moving on to GeoGrid. This is another one I'm probably going to screw up on
13:49
So whatever country I put in here has to be correct for both of these two things
13:53
And then same with here and here and then this one. You get it. You don't need me to explain it
13:57
So let's start with something easy. Starts with the letter B and has same-sex marriage legalized
14:03
So surely I would be fine putting Belgium, right? Let's give it a go
14:07
Belgium, guess. Nice. And it looks like I'd get more points if I was able to guess something even more obscure
14:12
Fine. I'll just be happy if I can get anything right here. We'll stick to stats with the letter B
14:17
Capital is not the most populated city. Ooh. So what other countries start with the letter B to begin with
14:23
We've got Belgium. Bahrain. But I don't know what the capital is
14:27
Belarus. But I'm guessing Minsk is the most populated. We might be able to do population over 10 million though
14:33
Because Belarus probably has over 10 million. So let's drop it in. Belarus
14:37
Here we go. Guess. Oh, that's incorrect. Okay. Well, I will try Bahrain then in that case
14:42
Guess. Neither have over 10 million. Oh God, I've got lives going down
14:46
Coastline less than 100 kilometers. Let's try and do that one. So I just pick somewhere small and not landlocked
14:53
Well, sticking to a B, even though I don't need to, I'm guessing I could do Bosnia
14:57
Bosnia and Herzegovina. Let's guess that one. How is that incorrect? It's 20 kilometers
15:01
So is same sex illegal? It is illegal. Right. Okay. Nice one, Bosnia
15:06
This is too hard for me. I can't do this. Top 20 in number of world heritage sites
15:11
Uh, same-sex marriage legalized. Let's do Italy. Why not? Let's try it
15:16
Italy, guess. How is that incorrect? Same-sex marriage is not illegal in Italy either
15:20
The world is far less progressive than I thought it was. So they might allow civil partnerships
15:24
but not actual marriage? That is ridiculous. I'm gonna have to enable infinity mode
15:28
because I'm not smart enough to get through this. Back to this one. Population over 10 million
15:32
I'm gonna do Botswana. Definitely. What? Their population's only 2.6 million. I thought that in Africa, just every country had such ridiculously high populations
15:43
And that would have an absolute nightmare. Brazil. Just nice and easy. Guess. Thank you
15:47
Wow, this is difficult. Brazil would actually be correct for the middle one as well, right
15:51
Oh, I should have saved it. Maybe Botswana's capital is not its most populated city
15:57
Let's try it. Nope. I really can't do this. Top 20 in number of World Heritage sites and same-sex marriage legalized
16:05
Let's try Canada. Canada has lots of nice spots. Yes. Oh, it's an epic guess as well. Only 5% of people have done that one. Right. Small country with not much of a coastline
16:14
What if they have no coastline? I was thinking they couldn't be landlocked, but maybe they can. Let's do Luxembourg
16:19
Do you think Luxembourg allows same-sex marriage? Let's try it. They do. Nice. And it's a rare guess
16:24
We are slowly working our way through this. Capital is not the most populated city. We might be able to do United States, maybe? Let's try it
16:31
Yes, we can. Population over 10 million and top 20. Hmm, United Kingdom? Maybe that one might work. Let's go for it
16:39
Nice. We are making serious progress now. Let it be, um, I'm going to try Bahamas, but I don't know it
16:47
Nope, I'm going to try Barbados, but I don't know it. Guess. Nope, never mind. I can't do that one, I don't think
16:52
Let do Coastline now that we know that they can be landlocked Capital is not the most populated city kazakhstan let give it a go yes nice and then low coastline with big population probably another
17:05
stan would get us there maybe uzbekistan let's give that a go guess nice okay so this is the
17:10
only one that i can't do start the letter b let's give up see what we could have had brazil is what
17:15
i wanted to do but i couldn't bangladesh i could have done for the other one what's the more obscure
17:19
ones. Bermuda. Ooh, that would be an interesting. Yeah, a lot of territories there from legendary
17:25
players. Okay, looking at the answers we could have had for that middle one. Belize, Bermuda
17:29
Bolivia, Brazil, Burundi. Okay, a lot of answers for some. So this one, whoa, that is a lot of
17:34
answers. But the one I didn't get did have the fewest answers, so that makes sense. All right
17:38
following a similar theme, we're now on Fladorku. I'm not good at these kind of things. As I said
17:44
these are getting harder as the video progresses. Wait till you see the last one. So two or more
17:49
words in the name of the country and blue, red, white only flags. So for that, I could do Dominican
17:56
Republic, right? Dominican Republic. Let's go for it. Is that, does that mean that's incorrect? And
18:02
then multiple colors in there. Wait, that's not the flag I was thinking of. Earlier in the video
18:06
I said Dominican Republic for that one with the stars. It's the Panama flag. I had completely
18:11
forgotten that that was the panama flag i honestly was really confident it was dominican republic
18:16
obviously they are quite similar but yeah that's my mistake all right panama let's put that in
18:21
it's still not correct oh because it's only one word right let's have let's have another go let's
18:28
do all bands oh this is ridiculous i'm not smart enough for this at all north america and red white
18:36
and blue only so i can do usa right united states there it is phew thank you okay a country that
18:45
speaks spanish and has red white and blue hmm for this one i might actually be able to do panama i'm
18:51
going for it i can phew thank you panama okay what's countries with two names we've got equatorial
18:56
guinea don't think that would work new zealand no north korea would that work is that red white
19:02
blue i think so it's really hard to visualize them yeah we got it we got it okay that's one
19:07
row down okay all bands horizontal and two words ah guinea basau that'd be one i'm gonna try guinea
19:13
basau it's not that band is not horizontal this is hard you know so we're north america with all
19:19
horizontal bands maybe costa rica would that work costa rica please it's yellow why is it yellow
19:27
That's right, isn't it? They're horizontal and it's in North America Isn't it four bands or more i'm thinking mauritania, but it's only one word south africa. Could that go there
19:37
I'm gonna try it. Yes, it can. All right, let's go back to spanish and uh, I could probably do portugal in there, right
19:43
No, they speak portuguese in portugal. I could do spain though That's a good idea jack. There you go spain's correct. I'm confused about the yellow one
19:50
I'm not gonna lie. Could I do south sudan for this one? I know there's a triangle shape, but yeah
19:55
I can, nice. Spanish, four bands or more. That's throwing me off. I'm thrown in Venezuela because
20:01
I just can't think of anything else. Yeah, that's only three. And then finally, North American
20:05
four bands or more. They don't necessarily have to be horizontal. United States would work
20:10
but sadly, I've already clicked it. Let's just throw in Jamaica because I can't think of anything
20:14
else. Okay, so for North America, four bands or more, I could have had so many. Whoa. I mean
20:20
it's because it includes all of these specific territories. That's a ridiculous amount
20:24
But if we're going just off the countries, it's these ones here. And that makes sense. I was thinking of bands as horizontal
20:30
even though you can see, like, for St. Kitts, they don't need to be. I should have got Cuba, though, shouldn't I
20:33
Let's be honest. And then for Spanish, four bands or more. Just the countries, we could have had these four
20:40
Costa Rica, Cuba again. Uruguay. I thought of Uruguay, but I was thinking of them for a different one
20:45
Ah, okay, that was hard. I struggled there. And now we end off with the hardest game of the video
20:50
and I have not been playing very well thus far. It is Tridle
20:54
Guess which country exports these products? This is the nerdiest geography quiz I've ever seen
21:00
So yeah, it shows literally like their most common exports So whatever country this is 59 of the total stuff they export is coal and then it's copper
21:09
A bit of gold is in there and then it moves down to the more obscure ones like animal hair nuts
21:14
Um meat wooden instruments So you can see generally it is coal and they've got a total of 14 billion
21:21
So this to me the fact that there is gold involved it makes me think it's probably somewhere in africa
21:26
And I guess that could make sense for some of these other items that we've got knocking about
21:30
But I am stuck so i'm gonna just shove south africa in so that hopefully it gives me like some kind of distance, right
21:37
Okay, I think that means we're not in africa. It's 11 000 kilometers away and it's over towards asia
21:43
So let's see if we can work out an area again by going Should we do kazakhstan kazakhstan could do a lot of mining for coal and that kind of thing. Let's have a look
21:51
Much much closer 2,000 kilometers away but still over to the east. So I guess that would mean
21:56
Mongolia was too close, right? I don't really want to risk it. I'm gonna type it Mongolia guess
22:01
We got it. It was Mongolia. Okay in my head. They kind of like tipped each other and bordered
22:07
Yeah, they do they do intertwine but maybe the distance is based from the center of each country or something
22:12
Look, I did a really accurate depiction of how the two countries border So interestingly the one that I thought would be the hardest I actually got much quicker than these ridiculous
22:21
grid ones which i really struggled with but anyway that was a daily geography games hopefully you
22:26
did enjoy if you did click that like button feel free to send me some custom ones at the email i've
22:31
linked and please do subscribe because we're getting close to 1.7 million and that would be
