    Default Take this test

    As we all know, the Middle East has and probably will have a significant impact on our lives . To fully grasp the events that are unfolding, I feel it is important to understand the geography. I thought I was pretty up on the geography of the region but still got 6 wrong. Take this test and see what you really know.

    Thanks. That's pretty cool. I always have trouble with Africa. So many of those countries names change. Six missed.

    I thought I knew it better than I did. Seven missed. I hope that there won't be some sort of jihad for trying to rename a few places.

    I got a bunch wrong, but they were in the general area, so I'm happy. Except for the few I've never heard of.

    They'll all be different next month, anyway.

    I had to learn all countries and significant landmarks while in highschool. Just about all of it has left me.

    Shame on you All these "mature" folks tried it and did fairly well . Maybe brushing up would help?
