Several of us have been playing with this for the last few weeks: Name 192 UN Countries in 10 Minutes

I started at a pathetic 63, and after a bit of practice I'm up to 119. I think I can get that to 130 or so before getting into all the morass of little island nations. My African geography really should be better.

I didn't do much better for a first crack (64), though there were several that I knew but didn't get the spelling the way they wanted. (Bosnia and Herzegovena, I was missing the "and" spelled out. And "Congo" is not enough. [grin] I was yelling "it is too!" at my screen.) Thanks for the link.

Yeah, I'm learning all sorts of nitpicky full titles. Did you know there's a Republic of the Congo AND a Democratic Republic of the Congo?
