Jump Between World Capitals: Closest of non bordering Country
Start with the World Capital of the largest country in the world. From there move to the closest capital of a non-bordering country. Keep going all the way!
crazy how the distance from Brasilia to Cape Town, Mexico City, and Washington dc is so close. also suprising that its closest to Washington DC. I mean it kinda makes sense considering that Washington DC isn't as west of Brasilia as Mexico City is but still on a map, the distortion makes Mexico City look closer.
I measured it out and on this map projection Mexico City is actually plotted closer to Brasilia than Washington DC. Crazy how much the distortion changes things.
Great quiz. The map projection messed with me so many times. Loved it when the quiz suddenly returned to Europe, only to dive into Africa while skipping Lisbon, which was returned to as one of the stepping stones to go from Auckland to Ottawa
Shouldn't Mexico City be the answer after Brasilia instead of Washington DC? It's quite a bit closer to Brazil than Washington DC is. Unless there's some tiny border between Mexico and Brazil that I don't know about.
Those two countries border each other.
