Geography by Picture - P

Well this was fun and refreshing. I just don't understand why I need to input "Plymouth Rock" when the hint already says rock.

Plymouth Rock is a lot less impressive when you see it in person

It's like a suburbanite moved to the shore and arranged a landscaping boulder.

I didn't know it before. Doesn't seem impressive at all

Doesn't look very impressive on that picture either.

Yay for Palestinian respresentation!

Since when Palestine is a country?

Oh boi here we go

Yeah I discarded the thought once I read country :/

For the other quizzes, non-UN member states have ready "country" in speech marks.

Wikipedia calls it a "state" so I feel this should be the description.

If Palestine had accepted any of Israel's proposed two-state solutions, it would be a country. But it has not.

Let's try to dial that back just a bit.

Where did all of these people come from? Don't usually have many of these types of comments.

Not wishing to get involved in the politics but Palestine is not a country at this time

It's an observer state to the UN, which means it is as much of a country as the Vatican is.

Country does not always mean sovereign country or nation-state. For example, the constituent countries of the United Kingdom are still "countries," albeit not in the sense that the countries on the Countries of the World Quiz are countries. And in this case, it would be more accurate to call Palestine a poorly defined and amorphous group of non-contiguous non-sovereign disputed territories with a contested, fragmented, partially-recognized government that enjoys observer status at the UN; but "country" fits better in the box.

Easily the best answer.

Palestine IS NOT A COUNTRY

but it isnt.

I tried to look up the Plymouth Rock thing, but apparently the only famous thing with that name on danish websites is a breed of chicken. To be fair they seem more interesting than the picture of that rock...

The breed was developed in Massachusetts and is thought to have been named for Plymouth Rock.

Not true.

Depends on if the quiz is in arabic

(sorry that was rude)

Depends on the definition being used.

Yeah, I'd be interested to see why you think it's not a country and if you feel as strongly about other 'countries' in these quizzes. Palestine is recognised as a country by the majority of other countries, does that not make it a country? No one seems to care that Taiwan calls itself a country, except the Chinese of course.

Nice cities by letter quiz! Sorry. I meant geography by letter.

Big clue in the final picture if you look hard enough

Perhaps you are aware of it and left it because otherwise the percentage would be too low? (54% atm, and 24% seems more realistic or even lower than that) But the answer is shown in the last picture.

One day I'll remember Patagonia. Gets me every time. SMH

Palestine isn't recognized as a sovereign state on Jetpunk. Please change the wording to territory.

LITERALLY READ UP

I swear, the people on this sight are smart enough to get these insane questions, but aren't smart enough to use ctrl + f to look for what they are writing an angry comment on this quiz about
