I didn't know it touched all those stans'

Level 70

Oct 10, 2016

It touches a few stans. Interestingly at the point where the west of China borders Kazakhstan, there is a four hour time difference. All of china runs at the same time as Beijing.

Jul 28, 2019

That is fascinating when you think about it. I allready knew about the one time zone, but never really thought about what it would be like crossing a border.

Level 79

Aug 30, 2021

There's only a 2 hour time difference between China and Kazahstan. You're thinking of the Afghanistan border where there's a 3 and a half hour gap.

Level 83

Jul 16, 2014

Huh? 67% of people get Kyrgyzstan, as of today.

Level 72

May 15, 2020

71% currently, but it is the least guessed one. Maybe because as some pointed out previously normal type ins arent accepted? I haven't tried out what works or not though. It could be that currently it is standard type ins again.

Level 43

Where is Tibet on the list?

Level 63

Jun 6, 2021

Nowhere. It’s a part of China. That would be like saying New York borders the USA.

Level 34

Apr 18, 2018

Tibet isn't a country. It was annexed in 1950 and has been part of China ever since.

Level 49

Completed with help from a map. Speed is just bragging by sad people

Level 48

Almost forgot Nepal and Bhutan but got India pretty much right away.

Level 66

Jul 10, 2018

can you accept DPRK for North Korea? if you accept ROK for South Korea than you should accept the DPRK.

Level 24

Jul 10, 2018

I put kazakistan so I didn't get perfect lol

Level 45

Jul 11, 2018

How did I forget Myanmar?!

Level 31

Oct 25, 2018

It's funny, the ones who do these kinds of quizzes are usually the ones who pretty much know geography. because in the countries of the world quiz, no one knows Mongolia.

Level 72

Jul 28, 2019

That makes me wanna look at that quiz, because it really isnt an obscure country, unlike some stans, a lot of african countries and most of oceania. And most islands in general

Level 72

Jul 28, 2019

I checked, it is actually 40th guessed out of 196, so that is pretty high up. Especially since most (I estimate atleast 90%) start either at the americas or europe.

Level 81

Sep 26, 2019

How could you forget about China bordering Mongolia? They didn't build that giant wall just for decoration.

spoiler alert Trump administration: it didn't work

Level 77

Sep 26, 2019

You couldn't wait to bring politics into the quiz.

Level 81

Sep 26, 2019

I waited 7 years. What's the appropriate waiting period?

Level 90

Sep 28, 2019

Politics is a bit of a stretch. What tbolt meant to say is “You couldn’t wait to bring Trump into this quiz.” If it was anyone else he wouldn’t have complained.

Interesting, I did not know afghanistan borders china, seems weird.

Level 81

Sep 26, 2019

It's that little piece of Afghanistan that sticks out at the top and stretches eastward. That part borders China. it's actually part of the ancient Silk Road, though currently the main pass is closed on the Chinese side.

Level 17

Sep 26, 2019

For some reason I've struggled with Afganistan for like a minute :D

Fun Fact: The border between Afghanistan and China is the largest single time-zone jump in the world, as China only uses one timezone. The difference is 3 hours and 30 minutes!

Missed Pakistan. By the way... China doesn't border Pakistan because of India's Union Territory Jammu and Kashmir

Level 73

Dec 27, 2021

JetPunk considers the illegally-occupied POK as mostly legal Pakistani land and hence it does border China.

By the way, I agree with you. :)
