Where did all those little tin pot places come from, they weren't there when I was at school

Got 87% on Europe. All those new states formed after the break up of the Soviet Union and the break up of Yugoslavia where what caused me slight problems. All the same, my average mileage error was 80.

I suppose you remember the North being French territory, the South with bits of east & west being British, the middle bit Dutch and a small fish canning factory in Tanganyika being German.

Africa- 87%, South America-85%, Asia- 81%, Middle East-100%, United States- 94%, Europe- 84%.....Not bad considering Americans don't know geography..

My biggest mistake for Europe was 98 miles, ouch, and the U.S. was 14 miles.

I can't believe that I only got 94% for the U.S. but just you try to put Kentucky on a blank map, and oops... I tried to put Rhode Island in New Jersey..
