So, I like geography and geofiction (For proof, I can name nearly every country in the world in 12 minutes). If anybody else shares this interest, here's the thread to talk about it.

 

I like geography quizzes, specifically ones asking where specific countries are (like all of those insignificant ones in Oceania or the teeny-tiny ones in Europe).


People are stupid.

I love geography too ! I love finding what's the capital city of each country and discovering where these countries are located. I feel like flight simulation and real life flying have helped me a ton. I'm probably still not the best in worldwide geography but I know a lot about Europe.

This. 

 

+ At school, we needed to look up certain countries and cities as well.

I've been working on a fictional country with an IRL friend for the past two weeks.

 

Here's the map so far.

The Republic of San Marino is located in central/northern Italy, next to Florence. I've been there twice. :P

i know a lot about it and i would love to share with friends, but no one likes to talk to me because they say i'm dark and depressed. well, i am indeed, but i'm a good source of cultural and geographical information :P

My son was called "Mr Atlas" in senior High school & loved geography too. He's 26 now & I can still ask him where any country or city in the world is & he'll know. Being slightly Aspergers helps too.

AE helped a lot with Europe, at least. All those transatlantic and cityhopper flights really helped me figure out what's what in Europe. As for the likes of Africa and Asia, I'm still working on it. Australia, South America, and North America are set.

No creo que saber donde se encuentra un pais sea importante. Por el contrario, saber quien es un pais es mas importante. Cualquier idota puede hacer un lista donde esta cualquier pais. Pero entender la cultura requiere un poco mas de matiz.

totally agree. i love to know the culture and history of a country and their people.

i love the history of the brazilian people. even though is the country i was born and where i live, the history of our nation is fascinating. a huge country with a lot of different cultures. and looking back into brazilian history, you can see the exactly point where all this corruption began; it's important to understand how we got to the actual situation.
