Me too, with 2:30 remaining. I don't usually boast like this but this time it feels quite an achievement, especially with Guinea-Bissau

I tried one and gave up, usually don't like pointless guessing. It looked like west coast africa but had no idea which

Cool quiz, I wanted to suggest a quiz.You could do a countries of the world quiz spelled backwards. I think it would be a fun challenge for me and most other users.

Interesting idea - how about setting that one up yourself? Anyone can create quizzes here!

Level 55

I've been making that one for a while now. Takes a long time when you're trying not to mess up.

Level 73

I would have been guessing for a long long time before

i got the least guessed answer.

Kuwait always looks like Darth Vader's helmet. It's strange. *MEGA KUWAITIAN CONSPIRACY*

Level 72

Apr 12, 2020

Man, I mentioned it looking like darth vader once myself, but I didnt see it this time, though I was thinking hmm what country in the middle east could this be..

And here I thought I'd be the only one who saw a lumberjack wearing a sombrero, cooking flapjacks over a campfire, in that image.

Apr 12, 2020

I have no idea what you could have been seeing, even trying to see thing which could fall under the "sick" category.

Now you got me checking all the pics.

Doesn't Egypt - or River Nile rather - look like a silhuette of a chimp? I can easily see her eye (a lake area?) and mouth (starting just above Abu Simbel). The bend of Nile (north of Luxor) looks like a protruding nostril or something else extra. ;)

BTW. If you ever get a chance to go on a Nile cruise, go, GO! It it the most amazing experience.. felt like a four-day time travel.. <3

Apr 12, 2020

yea I can see it, you know there is a word for seeing faces in things, pareidolia (did have to look up the exact word though, not one easy to remember..). Basically meaning (seeing) an imagine besides/on top of the actual depicted one (para idol)

If you get bored google pareidolia and check images :) some are amazing others very funny

For the penultimate picture, I believe China and India both take up a higher percentage of the image than Nepal.

+10

Level 45

Mar 15, 2019

I mean, Nepal is centered directly and the middle so it becomes very obvious. And they didn't show the whole country of India or China as well.

Level 86

Mar 15, 2019

Well, those aren't the rules. The rule is which country takes up a greater percentage of the image.

Level 78

Mar 15, 2019

Yes, and Nepal takes up the greatest percentage of the four countries you can see in the picture.

+14

Level 78

Mar 15, 2019

Nope! I was curious and bored at work, so I did a quick superposition of the borders over the image and some rough calculations, and I've got Nepal taking up roughly 38% of the image, China taking up about 36%, India about 25%, and Bangladesh has the remaining >1%.

Haha good job :)

That's what you get with satellite images, you will always get the countries they border in the picture aswell (besides island countries). Only if a country were the exact shape as the picture this wouldnt occur ( apart from zooming in so much you dont see borders at all, but that makes it too hard to guess in most cases)

Level 49

Mar 15, 2019

I forgot Israel, which looked like Norway, Kuwait, Guinea-Bissau and Bahrain

Level 72

Mar 15, 2019

Guinea Bissau with 6 seconds left FTW.

Singapore is so zoomed in

The buildings looked like snow

Level 37

May 31, 2021

That *is* the entirety of the main Singapore island (and almost the whole country, with only some islands not shown). And it is white due to urbanisation.

Level 57

Aug 13, 2020

Took 1:03 got all of them first try, did have to guess Guinea Bissau though.

Level 60

May 26, 2021

The hardest part for me was guessing the scale of the pictures, so singapore was very difficult since I searched for a much bigger portion of coastline on my imaginary worldmap. Same goes for Bahrain.

Level 37

May 31, 2021

We are a really small country, so few people have zoomed in that much I suppose. ;)

Wow. I’m always terrible at these, but this time I got them all. It helped that I got 5 random later question when I was trying to guess the first few.

Why is Palestine not a valid answer?

Level 67

Nov 20, 2023

because it's not a country...?

Guinea-Bissau is really taking most of the picture? Seems like Senegal or Guinea are taking good portion of it too.
