I'm just going from memory and trying to remember which countries I missed last time. I'm not looking at any maps, and I'm making sure to only take the test once a day so all the countries I've forgotten about don't become too fresh in my mind.

Just curious Gantic, what does it say when you complete it?
As in; how much % of people are you better than?

It's beats or equals, so it's always going to be 100%. If you want to know how many people got less than 196, you'll need to get 195/196, and you're going to have to do that yourself.

Well I improved my score to 70. I always feel like an idiot though when I see the ones that I missed which I should have gotten.

I doubt it if I'd be able to do that.
Maybe if I looked over all the countries for like an hour beforehand.

Alrighty. It says that 92.7% did not get all 196. I think doing this multiple times tends to skew the results, but yeah.

No, I don't know a lot of country capitals. I'd be surprised if i could name more than half.

82 ~42%. Forgot some, but a majority I did not know and did not even look remotely familiar. Got most of Europe and South America, some of Asia and North America, and a few in Africa and Oceania (basically just Australia and New Zealand, both of which I tried several major cities before finding the right one. I can name all of the capital cities in Australia and my first choice for the capital of Australia will still be Sydney if it weren't for the fact that I knew Melbourne used to be the capital. Heck, most Australian AGers are probably from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Adelaide. Is there anyone from Canberra?)

Yeah, population in Canberra is quite low.
It's always asked in general knowledge quiz's because most people still think Sydney is the capital.
