Draw the World Map

Are you an expert in JetPunk's Geography Quizzes?
Do you love typing so long and fast that your fingers ache?
Have you nothing better to do for the next hour?
Then step right up and try this ridiculously difficult quiz! Draw the map of the world by entering ALL country borders, including seas, oceans, gulfs, bays, lakes, and of course other countries.
Maritime boundaries are... fluid. And overlapping. The bodies of water used are a little ambiguous, in general use the smallest subdivision of the Sea/Ocean/Gulf/Bay.
Lakes that are entirely contained within a country are not drawn on the map. Because they aren't borders.

ok first of all: congrats! exceptional work!

secondly: i'm starting to think than 1 hour is way too few time for such a massive quiz (also: answers are longer than the average)

third: I'm not so fond of the addition of smaller lakes with international borders. Bu if you want to go for it, what's the criteria for excluding some of them?

Here's a list of some lakes shared by multiple countries which you may consider including:

- Lake Maggiore (Italy-Switzerland)

- Lake Lugano (IT-CH)

- Lake Ohrid (North Macedonia-Albania)

- Lake Great Pespa (North Macedonia-Albania-Greece)

- Lake Shkodra (Montenegro-Albania)

- Lake Geneva (Switzerland-France)

- Lake Constance (Switzerland-Germany)

- Lake Khanka (China-Russia)

In order: Thanks!

Unfortunately, 1 hour is the limit imposed by JetPunk, there is no way to increase it.

Criteria: a balance of Size and Notoriety, sprinkled with the whims of the author.

Level 94
May 23, 2023
thank you for your reply!

Honestly, it's not the criteria I would have been using, and I had a lot of dfficulties with that category (why not just use "size"?) but it's your quiz, and I had fun nonetheless.

I think for Indonesia, it should be Cenderawasih Bay, not Cendrawasih (missing 'e')
+3
Level 92
May 17, 2023
I'll repeat this--transliteration is not an exact science. Some translations to English include the e, some do not. As far as I've been able to determine, people from the area prefer the spelling without the additional e, so that's what I went with. The second e is acceptable as a type-in.

Actually, this is one quiz I don't mind redoing when it gets updated because I learn something new every time.

I just love this quiz really.

Yay, finally a new update! Had been looking forward to it for so long. Apart from the Denmark/Svalbard errors that I’m certain you’re already aware of, here are another few:

-Denmark-Canada border on Hans island & eastern coast of the Faroe Islands already appear in the beginning

-the coastlines for north and northeastern Greenland, Jan Mayen and Svalbard are unusually thick

+2

Normally I try to not use the "Show Missing" option, but with all the new borders I did and I think I stared at the northern border for Russia for about five minutes with my mouth just hanging open. Holy heck, that's gonna take a while to memorize. Otherwise, fantastic job updating, we do not deserve you!

One tiny thing that I would LOVE to happen but is completely unnecessary - is there any way you could add like three more lakes so there's an even 800 number of answers? Lol that would make me so happy :)

+1
Level 92
May 20, 2023
There will be an increase as I correct the Svalbard/Jan Mayen brain cramp that I had. I... may decide to change decisions made on other bodies of water to make 800 happen.

Have you checked out the quiz "Bodies of water on the world map"?

https://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/1314339/bodies-of-water-on-the-world-map

It's a really high-quality quiz on its way to being featured that might have some ideas for water bodies you could use.

+1
Level 92
May 21, 2023
I'd be curious to see what on that quiz you think would be worth including here. Most of what isn't included here are non-border lakes, straits and passages that have too short a land border to be easily visible, or things like the Scotia sea, which have no significant land borders to draw. I do like the projection that map uses (Hans Island's position looks a lot better, for example) but I want to stay with the Jetpunk standard map for now.
+2
Level 83
May 22, 2023
There are still two more slight issues you missed:

-the eastern coast of the Faroe Islands do not appear when I type Denmark-Norwegian, they only appear when I type Norway-Norwegian

-Northern Svalbard is still too thick

And plus, have you gave up on shading water border answers in blue?

+1

785/799 third try on this updated version.

Pretty happy with that, it just left northern Russia lit up like a Christmas tree.

My only nitpick would be to disregard terms such as sea/gulf/strait/bay etc. when alphabetizing the answers.

Fantastic challenge though.

fairly good, so many obscure bodies of water i've never heard of! the US and Canada do not have a land border in Michigan as the map would suggest, though.

Level 92

I'm assuming your quibble is because the border as drawn between Michigan and Ontario is comprised of the rivers Detroit, St Clair, St Marya, etc? If we didn't count those as "land borders" there would also be no land borders between Texas and Mexico from El Paso to Brownsville as the border is the Rio Grande.

^ True. If it helps, there's a "multi-answer" method of entering that dramatically reduces the amount of typing required. In the answer box type "X [country] [border1] [border2] ..." then when you've finished all the borders of the country, go back and delete the X at the beginning. Since the answers use a Starts With RegEx, and allows for unneeded characters (So that both USA Lake Superior and USA Superior will work), it will accept any answers down the line that border the first country, but won't accept any answers until that initial X (or whatever) character is removed. So you can type "Z Burkina Faso Mali Cote dIvoire Ghana Togo Benin Niger" then hit HOME, DELETE and it'll complete the country only having to type Burkina Faso once.

Just realized that when QM re-featured the quiz, the time was bumped up to 75 minutes!!!! That's a 25% increase, so I can add another 200 answers, right?

Yes please. I usually reach around 790 after 45 minutes, and those last ten I don't know - making the remaining time irrelevant.

This is not using your "multi-answer" method but typing each border out one by one.

I don't think I can be described as anything other than an average typist.

How the hell does a 602 get only 3 points on this quiz. I genuinely doubt 1/10 people can get some random bays in northern russia that are uninhabited and never heard of.

Sampling random people on the street, I think I'd agree with you. However, taking a sampling of users on this site, I'd expect the average of those who actually make an attempt at this quiz to come in around half, with a plurality able to score above 600. This is mostly due to the fact that a large amount of the information in this quiz extrapolates from the Countries of the World quiz, which many have mastered.

As for the Mediterranean, THIS. IS. INTENTIONAL. For the same reason that there is no border between the Atlantic Ocean and Mexico, i.e. there are smaller marginal seas that must be used instead.

Repeating this again, transliteration is not an exact science. Some translations to English (including that used in Wikipedia) include the e, some do not (including Google Maps). When discussing the bird species group the name comes from, the e is usually missing, but when talking about the native languages in the area, it's typically there. The 2 friends I have in Indonesia indicate that the preferred spelling in the area drops the second E, as evidenced by Cendrawasih Papua FC, though the National Park on the peninsula on the western side of the bay includes it. :shrug:

I'm using this to learn the sea's n major lakes. I like tracing the outlines of the world. This time i challenged myself to complete africa fully, not a border left behind, then fill in what i could afterward. I managed to get pretty close to the score i got from my first attempt, even tho i wasn't rushing. only missed 1 african border.

Some r definitely easier to remember than others to remember. n some more complex names I only remember half of. for example, african lakes like edward, albert, and victoria r much easier to remember than, say, lake tanganyika. Because I already knew africa was colonized by the british, a majority of that area specifically. So big name english rulers r easier to recall, especially for a history nerd lol. also, lake turkana, surprisingly easier to remember than u's think. I just thing "that starts with a t. t=turk and vertical lake=straightish=oh yeah, katana=turkana. Typing that out, i realize just how dumb of a pneumonic it actually is lol.

Is there any chance we can get a quiz just dedicated to inlets of the Arctic Ocean to help us learn? Would be quite useful for Russia, we usually don't see any detail of this scale on Jetpunk.

On another note, is there any reason why Yenisey Gulf is included in Khalmyer Bay? It's the larger gulf to the east of Khalmyer. Wikipedia pages for the two are here and here.

You know, that's actually a fun idea, could take a polar view and really get the detail in good proportion, I might try that.

I had Yenisey in some variations of the map, but it ultimately fell below the "it still needs to be at least kind of fun" threshold.
