Save Europeans by Guessing Countries

Evil aliens have decided to kill everyone in Europe! Fortunately, they've given you 45 seconds to save as many as you can. All you have to do is name a country to save everyone in it.
Each "answer" correct corresponds to 1 million people saved
Countries with fewer than 1 million people are rounded up
2020 population estimates according to Worldometers
Includes the entire population of countries considered to be "European", even if parts are in Asia

Make sure to get every country except:

-France because it smells funny

-Monaco because unoriginal flag

-The UK because the food is crap

-Romania because it’s not Chad

-Scandinavia because they look like a penis

-Austria because Hitler

-Germany because more Hitler

-The balkans because they don’t exist

-Russia because my American friend says it’s communist

-Latvia because they eat poop I think

-Switzerland because they’ll probably all survive it anyway

The Netherlands because the people are too tall

-Belgium because Brussels sprouts

-Ireland because it’s too drunk

-Italy because it’s too loud

-Poland because my friend’s from Poland

-Bulgaria because they shake their head to say yes and nod to say no

-San Marino because it’s been around too long

-Kosovo because it hasn’t existed for long enough

-Every other country because it isn’t Liechtenstein

Save Liechtenstein.

You are rude! The UK's food isn't crap I live here myself. Who cares that old Irish men drink too much. It doesn't matter about these countries, where they are, or about the people who are in it, they are still people. I am not going to save Liechtenstein as it is too long and complicated to type quickly. You are racist!

Also, British food is way healthier than American Mcdonald's, KFC, Burger King, Dunkin' Donuts, Subway, and way way more fattening food. Maybe try eating healthy Curry and healthy Roast Dinners????

You will be way healthier eating these other than Fried Chicken, salty Fries, and beef burgers all of the time!

Slow typers could create a strategy to type the biggest countries in order. That would require intelligence and if you had a good strategy could result in a decent score, even for slow typers.

The fun is in the challenge. It should not (have to) be in getting a 100%. If you are only happy when you win you will have a pretty miserable life, because in life things hardly go a 100% your way.

I don't think you are a kid, but I see young/little kids these days throwing massive tantrums when they don't win (sure it is not a new phenomenon, but the behaviour is way more intense, they are much more entitled etc today ). And then they will cheat. They learn/think life evolves around them.

Sorry to go off on a tangent ( hope it is the correct expression, digressing I meant). But I think think learning you can't always win is important (for yourself and those around you). In a game with 4 people 3 will lose.

Sure it shouldn't be so fast you can't even get 10% Then again it IS a typing challenge. In event of a flood you can't complain you can't swim either ;) (Should have just written that instead of this entire block of text haha).

Also if it is a test about guessing colors it does not makes much sense to complain about being colorblind does it. (In other cases where color is just used as an indicator and they could have just as easily used other colors, then yes ofcourse it does). And well if you have trouble reading there are a whole lot of quizzes you would have to complain about.

Personally I like a challenge. I wouldn''t consider myself a fast typer either (though not slow compared to average public) If playing an escape room, I would definitely rather not finish it than finish it in 30 minutes or less. No challenge is no fun in my opinion. (In game like setting, there are a lot of challenges in life that are no fun like physical pain or dealing with people abusing/bullying you. But also non game like things in life are a fun challenge, in my opinin anyway, like assembling or making a cabinet or in a forest making your way past obstacles, though those thing would surely piss of some people haha
