Neat quiz here. So glad you included that last one! :- ) Wanted to take it to test my memory about this topic. Ha. Could be better couldn’t be righter! :- ) Surprised that I was correct on number 8 and am wondering if that number has changed in the last 50 years. Now to look that up…
Thanks very much, Roberta. Your comments are much appreciated 🙂 Nothing has changed on that number in #8 in 50 years. (South Sudan is landlocked.)
Ah, thanks! The countries there are so volatile with such a record of changes…I’ve not thought about it in a while.
Got 6/9…nice quiz Norman good job 🙂
got 7 out of 9 right!
7/9, mistaken with countries bording the Indian Ocean and South China Sea. Really super geographical quiz!
5/9 I made 2 stupid mistakes I realized at the moment I clicked on the answer, haha! Awesome quiz! At least I got the last one correct.
I got 5 out of 9….I gave it a good try!
You got 8 out of 9 right! That underwater ridges just don’t want to give me a perfect score.
7/9 – I just got the ridge and the number of African countries wrong.
Nicely done. Those seem to be the two biggest catch-outs 🙂
Got them all except #3. Love the last one. 🙂
You did real well! Hey Carol, you even got that last one right 🙂
I like ocean. They are mighty.
