Welcome back to my little series where I'm trying to learn all 197 flags of the world
0:05
which I don't even really want to do. I've just kind of been pushed into it. I've been doing a
0:08
little bit of research into things that might potentially help. This is pretty useful. All
0:12
the countries that currently have a Union Jack in the corner are in Oceania. So New Zealand flag
0:17
Australian flag, and then maybe some of the little island countries. So we'll put that to the test in
0:21
a second. Also in this video, I will be doing flags of the world on GeoGuessr because hey
0:26
Maybe that'll help a little bit. I've done that before and I got a pretty pathetic 13,000 points
0:30
So I definitely want to try again because surely I've improved a little bit since then. This is also quite useful
0:35
I didn't know about it. Two blue stripes are a common feature in more central american countries
0:40
So using the union jack oceana thing, let's see if we can get a few so we do know that this is
0:45
Australia and then if we look for the others for example, this one here, so this isn't new zealand
0:50
So it's got to be one of the little island countries. So let's try Ooh, Samoa? No, we'll try Tuvalu. We will try, uh, Naru. Fiji. It was Fiji. That was the Fiji flag
1:01
There we go. There it is. Fiji. How can I remember that? Um, well, let's say that the little armor
1:06
thing is like a island in Fiji. Sure, that'll do. And my name is Jack, aka Union Jack, and I have
1:15
been to Fiji. Here's a picture of me in Fiji. It was delightful. So I'm always going to remember
1:19
But that is Fiji now. That one is easy. That is New Zealand. I do know that one
1:23
There we go. Oh, here we go. I've got another one. So where's that with all those little stars
1:27
What does that look like? Is that going to be Karabas? Karabas
1:33
No, it's not. Is it going to be Papua New Guinea? Papua New Guinea
1:38
I struggle to spell that one. So I might have got it the wrong way around. No, it's not Papua New Guinea
1:43
Marshall Islands. I bet this is the Marshall Islands. Ready? It's not the Marshall Islands
1:48
Well, what is it then? Marshall Islands, Fiji, Tuvalu, Australia, New Zealand, Solomon Islands, there's 14 in Oceania, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Nauru
1:57
What am I missing? Oh, I might have to give up. Right, I'm cheating. Tuvalu? I said Tuvalu
2:03
Tuvalu. Oh, that's so sad. Okay, how am I gonna remember this is Tuvalu? Do any of the stars look like a T
2:09
No. Okay, I'll remember that's Tuvalu because it's not Fiji, it's the other one. Brilliant, that'll do
2:15
Okay, should we play flags of the world and just see if we can improve our score of 13,000
2:20
We'll see how we get on. I think I'm gonna have a bit of a nightmare, but let's see right here. We go
2:24
Come on. Where's our flag? Where's our flag? All I see is a wheelie bin. I need me flag play. Is it that oh
2:30
My god it is it is so that is It it Israel isn it So we gonna find it on here I think it that one And we gonna check because we trying to learn here all right So we allowed to like cheat in the game
2:42
Israel. It is Israel. Okay, well, no moving. Let's find ourselves Israel
2:48
which is... Yeah, there it is. And we'll just go... We'll go near Jerusalem
2:53
And guess. Oh, 2.1 miles away. Nice. Okay, let's play the next round
2:59
Right, here's our flags. It looks like we're in Africa. Uh, Gin Royal, potentially an English-speaking country
3:05
Oh, no, I reckon I take that back. Looking at the other post, we've got a football one here
3:10
Have we actually spotted out? Right, there's the flag. So, immediately, I don't know where that is
3:14
Let's see if we can find it on Flags of the World. Let's get only African flags up
3:18
Now, let's try and find this one. Right, I think it's this one. It is the other way around
3:23
but it's just because I were looking at it from the wrong angle, I guess. Right, so what flag is that going to be? I guess we'll just try and name some countries
3:28
Okay, so we know it's South Africa, Kenya, Nigeria. I know those flags, so I guess we'll just try some other ones
3:35
Ethiopia, Botswana, Zimbabwe. I think we'll start at the bottom and I'm going to work my way up the continent
3:43
Mozambique, Lesotho, Eswatini, Angola, Namibia. Could be Namibia. Oh, it's not Namibia
3:52
Have we done Niger? No, we haven't. Chad, Cameroon. Tanzania
4:06
Oh, it was Benin. Fair enough. This is Benin. No problem. Benin is like down here somewhere
4:14
We'll go in the capital if we can find it. Uh, yeah, we'll try like there
4:18
Guess. Oh, 1.1 miles away again. How do we remember this is Benin
4:22
That looks like a B. Do you get me? Let me show you what I mean. So like that
4:26
It splits into a B. That's a B. I'm gonna remember it. It doesn't matter if you don't. Let's play the next round
4:34
Hopefully we can have a slightly easier one. So we can move around this time
4:37
We are somewhere with dollars and somewhere English. And it just looks like America
4:42
but I'd like a flag, please. Where's my flag? I thought this was flags of the world
4:46
Where's my bloody flag? Don't see any flags. Does anyone see any flags? I can't see a single flag
4:51
Oh, it's up there. Fair enough. Okay, is this just the US thing? Because there's a United States flag
4:55
I don't know what that other one is and if we can get a better look at it. Oh god I think we're just gonna have to guess us though. Oh, hang on. Thank you Guam. Right. That's not gonna help me
5:03
That gonna just try and throw a curveball Don pay attention to that at all Don get sucked into Guam That what I always said we try and work out which state we in so I guessing maybe that the state flag any clues there i can see that we got quite good score so far
5:17
is all so from that respect you know it would be nice to get the correct state international
5:21
brotherhood of electrical workers that doesn't really help oh my god look says guam again is
5:26
this a good point to admit i don't actually really know what guam is but the fact it says guam in
5:31
two different locations i feel like is something of note wait we're allowed to cheat in this aren't
5:36
We're just trying to learn we need to focus on the flags. I'm just gonna search guam and see what it is
5:40
It is an island. Oh my god. Is that where we are? Let's try and find guam then so guam is a u.s island territory in micronesia. Okay, where's micronesia
5:50
I don't know federal states of micronesia. Can someone show me where guam is there it is
5:55
We found guam so guam is part of the u.s But it's just it's in its own little area like quite far away from the u.s to be fair
6:02
Ages away from the u.s. All right, well we will go in the capital of guam
6:06
We'll shove ourselves up here, shall we? Yeah, let's guess. And 1.1 miles
6:10
We're getting lucky with where we're actually clicking with our pinpoints. Fair enough. I have learned about Guam today
6:15
I've said Guam way more than I expected I would. Can I get back to my flags, though, please
6:20
Okay. So, is this just France? There's quite a few flags that are quite similar
6:25
Oh, my God. There's a lot of flags here. Quite a few flags use the French colours. I guess that's the flag we want to be taken note of
6:31
That looks like French to me, but I could be wrong. Yeah, that's the French flag, isn't it
6:36
Do you want to just plonk ourselves down in Paris? Chamber de Commerce
6:40
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I'll go in Paris, but I'll go slightly more on the outside of things
6:45
I think I'll go like... We'll go there. Guess. Brilliant news. So we're near Mauritius
6:54
and we're in a place called Reunion, which is a French department in the Indian Ocean
6:59
So I got four points there, but it's fine because I knew the flag, and that's the real point here
7:04
That's objective number one. We've already beaten our previous score. We're on our final round now
7:08
U.S. Enterprises. And then another language that I'm not familiar with at all
7:13
Oh, Bhutan. We're in Bhutan. Fair enough. So we'll find Bhutan, which is like there
7:19
All right, what's the capital of Bhutan? Which one sticks out the most? I think it's that one
7:23
Oh, Bhutan is so mountainous. I see some mountains. Well, yeah, yeah, yeah
7:28
I see the mountains. Let's chase them out. Wait, we didn't get to see the flag. We'll Google the flag
7:32
Oh, very cool flag. All right, this is a dragon climbing up an orange mountain because there are lots of mountains in bhutan
7:38
Well i not really got to see very many just yet So we gonna head over here Oh look at that car that old army truck Show me the mountains I can see the mountains because there just houses in the way of them all Look there something There one over there kind of Let me return to the start because I think there was an address We may as well try and get like a good score I think it was
7:56
behind me. Yeah. Oh, we are in Timfu. That's where I clicked. Timfu. So, Timfu, Nosinlam. We could
8:03
find Nosinlam. It doesn't seem like a particularly big place. Five minutes later. Disappointingly
8:07
turns out I cannot find Nosinlam. I would assume that it's got to be somewhere in this central bit
8:13
here we'll go right there we'll be nearby yes 1000 yards nice oh it was further up further up let me
8:19
see nose in where is it oh it doesn't say nose in oh it does on this one in the neighboring one
8:23
interesting fair enough okay that is a nice score to end on so in the end you know what we did okay
8:28
obviously we were you know doing a little bit of googling here and there which is a big advantage
8:32
but we did happen to get quite lucky with where we're clicking excluding the french one but i
8:36
hold my hand high just short of 20 000 points so now just to make sure that that information went
8:41
in i'm gonna play the flags of the world just trying to find the three countries that we went
8:47
to so we'll start with the easiest one we'll just try and find the french flag where is it there it
8:51
is perfect okay that is france cool where else did we go we went to benin don't tell me don't
8:57
tell me i can find the benin flag no problemo we just need those three colors where are they it's
9:02
red green and yellow i think where is it uh there i think that is it do you see the b put a b right
9:08
there kai ready for this benin great okay where else did we go we went to israel i knew the israel
9:16
one already so that should be okay i need to find it first and there it is the star of david israel
9:24
fantastic oh okay we've also got guam but that's just united states and it's near micronesia usa
9:31
fantastic then the final one that we had was bhutan as well which is the cool dragon climbing
9:36
up the mountain oh i'll get my favorite flag seychelles while i'm here as well here we go
