Palestine is an observer state in UN. Please add this. Also please shrink Morocco since western Sahara is a disputed territory, and remove Taiwan since it is also disputed.
There are multiple different ways to define a country, and whether or not it's in the UN isn't a factor. By that logic, Switzerland became a country in 2002.
Nope, the US doesn’t recognize Palestine, and neither does UK, where almost all JetPunk users are from. I think Palestine should not be here but if Taiwan is then Palestine should be because neither are US recognized. Also, if Taiwan is recognized, then Western Sahara should be too. They are more recognized than Taiwan.
That argument is meaningless. The countries selected on JetPunk are not determined by the number of countries that recognize it, but rather by observing reality, and is not subject to bias. Just because a higher percentage of people of a country are on the site does not change the reality of a situation.
I don't know why people are arguing about adding Palestine, JetPunk doesn't recognize Palestine as a country. They only recognize Kosovo and Taiwan and they are not UN members. It is because Kosovo and Taiwan are more recognized than Palestine.
Actually Taiwan is barely recognized, less than Western Sahara, but Western Sahara is “not” a country in JetPunk. Why? I don’t know. Also, Palestine is more recognized than Kosovo. Is Kosovo a country? -no- Yes? But then Palestine should be also.
I've been stuck on his quiz for ages and couldn't get more than 80. After a little practice I can get all of them easily. If you want to get all of them go continent by continent.
Listen Quizmaster, let ppl have an option to write Palestine. Palestine is way more recognized than Kosovo and Taiwan which is a part of china and not a country. If u added Taiwan add Palestine if you don't add Taiwan don't add Palestine. Btw Palestine has way more UN members than Kosovo and Taiwan. I even searched it up. Does anyone else agree?
So people can have opinions on Nagorno-Karabakh so Quizmaster needs to put it in? No. This is on the American perspective, as the JetPunk headquarters are in Seattle. The U.S.A recognizes Kosovo and Taiwan, but since the U.S.A recognizes Israel, it does not recognize Palestine. Sure, Palestine is more recognized than Taiwan and Kosovo, but this is from the American perspective.
They're saying they forgot the saintly Caribbean islands (St. Lucia, St. Kitts and Nevis, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines), as well as Belize, East Timor, and Liechtenstein.
I think Palestine should be in the quiz also, but I think it isn’t because Quizmaster may be from a country that doesn’t recognize Palestine, probably The US, that’s where I’m from, but I personally think that if Taiwan is counted as a country, so should Palestine. :L
Wrong. For a country to be a country it has to have border control, it is a UN requisite. Palestine doesn’t have that, so it can’t be a country, at least not yet. Taiwan has border control and to some extent as does Kosovo, which is why they are countries and Palestine is not.
I would be interested in how people manage to come in under 5 minutes? do you have any work-related skills to type that fast? do you have to master the 10 finger writing system or is it also possible to write with 2 fingers?
i type with the standard 8 finger home row placement. no real work related skills. lots of paper writing i suppose does it and coding. just keep going you'll get faster. my growth was exponential for awhile
I use a standard keyboard. I only use my index fingers, but my muscle memory makes me type really fast for a pecker. I can get 4 minutes, recall just isn't the hard part.
My personal best time is 3:54! I feel like I can still reduce it tho. Edit: Just after commenting this i got 3:48! These touch typing skills are coming into use.
also, i have been wondering, does anyone here know why vatican city is a country? i tried looking it up but my computer hates me, and i dont remember it being a country but maybe im just weird
Basically in 1929, something called the Lateran treaty ended a bunch of political tensions between Italy and the Catholic Church that granted the Vatican it's independence.
poor sao tome only 22% of people guess it, but don't worry i've guessed it and get it 75% of the time, times I didn't get it is when i couldn't finish this quiz but now i can :)
You should take my quizzes. I have quizzes on all sorts of categories. Fodd, sports, general knowledge, and much more to come. Please take my quizzes. You have no idea how much it would mean to me.
Got a new record, 4:42. My advice is keep show missing countries on, then if you know all of them and where they are you can't really fail unless you are a really slow typer.

Think you have mastered this try the alphabetical one per continent for example Asia's first country in alphabetical order is afghanistan but europe is first so you would start with Albania https://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/1353484/countries-of-the-world-quiz-but-its-a-z
I got every country with 5 minutes left, but couldn't spell Djibouti right! First, I spelt it like Djibooty, wondering why I didn't get it. Than I got so desperate that I typed Did-your-booty. Then, Did-ya-booty. I quitted and when I say the correct spelling, I slapped my big, fat, no African knowledge booty.

even the ones that need full names, i just put drc for democratic republic of the congo.
i put car for central African republic
i put DPRK for north korea (because they are VERY democratic)
It marks a part of Serbia as if I hadn't answered Serbia yet
Play my quiz! A creative spin on it!
I could've placed them easily in French, now I'm discovering I need to learn all the English names and I really feel too lazy to do it.
this is really one of the best brain exercises you can do. thinking on the fly and planning where to go next while you're typing is no joke
also i have a better time on the quiz without the map somehow. maybe it's better to not rely on the map at all
