Same here! Toronto specifically, as my profile info states.

[Rhea]

You easterners

[Teresa]

I think I got Alberta right.

especially if you consider my world is either Texas or notTexas

[Rhea]

The best one I ever saw had things like "Maple Syrup, Moose Poop, Igloos, COLD"

SO gonna attempt this at some point! This is all hilarious!

I think (terribly enough) I know the US states better than the English counties.

However, I've noticed so far noone has placed Yorkshire correctly (I don't think) :'( My proud Yorkshire self is despairing!

The thing with the UK is that under the UK banner, England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are basically the states of the UK (though they're just called countries because everyone is too proud to call them otherwise xD) and then within each country/state under the UK banner there are different counties (like in the American states). As far as I can tell, the map of the UK that's been provided is just vaguely showing regions, but that makes sense otherwise it would be either label England/Scotland/Wales/Northern Ireland and Ireland or label well over one hundred counties

I did these on Paint so apologies for lack of readability

Spoiler:

Are they even called counties or is it like regions


An apology to all Americans

Oh and @Mir_ England has 83 counties. I literally have no idea for the rest of the UK though

[Heather]

They're called provinces, actually, with the exception of the three territories (Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut).

[Thaitanic]

Ah okay. Glad to know xD

There are quite a lot of differences between the countries, they all have their own national governments, with their own flags, traditions, histories, national dishes, even laguages! They primarily speak Welsh in the more rural parts of Wales for example! If any Scot read that they would flip out. At the moment they are trying to emancipate themselves and become completely independent from the UK.

But in yeah, England we're all split into regions, like the map we have

I gave them all my best shot! I'm sorry, apart from Russia I couldn't name anything East of Poland and Italy, I messed up the top and middle of Canada, and I forgot the name of Wisconsin, I think I got all the UK regions though!

Spoiler:

I'd like to add when I say Yorkshire, I actually mean The People's Republic of Yorkshire, or maybe Yorkshire and the Humber............ yorkshire

Have you ever looked at North America as a continent? It looks like a dog on its back. Alaska is the head, Florida is one of the paws, California/Mexico is the tail and Quebec is another two paws, and the Great Lakes look like a palm tree. Also Australia looks like the head of a terrier dog.

[Ani-Mei]

No one else bothered to try? Aww...

No, no. I'm sure Skyrim is part of Canada and Ontario isn't. You Canadians just don't understand real geography.

[Blaqhawk]

hehehehehahahahabwAHAHAHA..... Sorry, I'll refrain now.... snicker...

This is a reason I think we need more Geography training....

And why I'm going into Geography as a major... focus on Cartography...

I shall try this... I did similar in one of my geography classes, so this should be fun...

And no, skyrim is not part of reality..

Anyways..

Spoiler:

I likely have one misplaced.. Few know this, but there is a tiny island country between Sweden and Finland, so thats what #11 is...

And Canada

Spoiler:

The name of the newest province escapes me.. I think I did decent with the others..

I might do my own country later.... Maybe... Hey Chase, can you name the capitals of said countries / states /provinces? W/o looking em up ofc.. But that's up to you..
