For those that laughed at Fox News 5th grade geography fuck up on where Egypt really is, take a crack at this, and prepared to be humbled.

Some in Africa were hard but most of them came pretty  easy after getting National Geographic for many years :)Also, I'm not sure all those countries in Afica would be considered Middle East ;)

of course, I was always a geography nerd when I was a kid. At one time I could name every nation in the world and every US state, but that was before the Soviet Union fell. I wish they had a game like this to test every country on the planet.

But, I would expect Fox to at least know where Iraq is, since we've been fighting a war there for the last 8 years.

Didn't get all of them, just most.  Now, to bring this thread down to the typical P&R level, take a look at THIS map!

Luke Cole, whoever he is, would be well advised to not show his map to anyone from Texas, 'cause he probably would get a knock on his head, lol. Them boys down there don't take kindly to that shit.

As for Texas being part of Dumbfuckistan, given everything that's gone on there more recently I'd say that moniker should be taken as a complement! LOL!

Union and we didn't have to bother with Armenia, Uzebekestan et al. It was much simpler.

until the Soviet Union imploded. Piece of cake for me, been to about 90% of the places on that map. Sure as hell ain't going back though! Going to Yemen is like stepping back into the 13th century.
