Thank so much for: 1. Not calling this video an IQ test or a quiz to assess if one’s a genius; 2. Providing explanations for each answer; 3. Not adding loud (any) music, which only distracts the viewer.
If the question was "what sea is 500 nautical miles west of the philippines" its gunna be west philippine sea. But west philippine sea only covers the philippine area of responsibility, lets not confuse the whole s. China sea as w. Phil. Sea, only partial of s. China sea covered w. Phil. Sea, its not the whole s. China sea that covers the w. Phil. Sea.
being a stamp collector for many years helped me answer most of these, there were some rather tricky ones. thanks, i'll be checking more of your quizzes.
Thanks for your feedback Shirley. I thought there was 6 geography videos in the series. In any manner I will keep producing content for some time :). Thanks
20 trivia questions .......................with answers ! Wow , you really are ahead of the curve . All other trivia quiz compilers must be livid that they didn´t think of that ! !
Thank you so much for this trivia quiz because it is so entertaining during this covd-19 crisis. I wouldn't ever tell my family and friends because I would give away my victory.
@@davidacosta193 you're a bit confused. The Republic of China (ROC) is NOT the People's Republic of China (PRC)... the ROC is the official name of Taiwan. Recognizing the ROC as the ROC and not the PRC IS in fact recognizing Taiwan as independent of the PRC.
Several of these questions were not about geography but history (eg. Eifel Tower, Persia, Thailand) and the volcano question was imprecise ("largest" by what measure: caldera size, elevation, prominence, amount of material expelled?).
Exiled_Londoner I agree, and it said active volcano, I live on the Big Island and the only active volcano here is Kilauea. Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea are huge but dormant.

Chinese always tries to sreal the sea like right next to us. And they don't even own us now, Philippines is now free from wars but China which us being a butt. Calling the sea we own South china sea. This is why team up with America with this problem. The same thing happened to them too. A lot of Filipinoes is angry at those Chinese fisherman and pirates always trespassing without permission. China just want the things that are valuable for themselves. Pretty pathetic
20/20 without any hesitation. I answered most questions without looking at the answers. Not that difficult but i really enjoyed the video/quiz. Thanks for that.
In three different answers, you use "it's" when it should be "its". "It's" is a contraction of "it is" and "its" is the possessive form of the pronoun "it".
About question 17: Taiwan is in fact closer to Japanese coastlines than to Chinese. It's only 107 km from Yonaguni Island (Japan) to Taiwan vs about 120 km to the Chinese Mainland. And that is if you are talking about the island of Taiwan, Taiwan as a country is even closer to the Philippines, with only 98 km between Xiao-Ian Yu (Taiwan) and the coast of Amianan (Philippines).
This quiz was much harder than most of these youtube quizzes. My knowledge of geography was acquired over 60 years ago, and yet I only missed 4 questions. Very good, bring on some more of these but give us at least 4 seconds instead of 3 to read the choices. Also appreciated the silence of the presentation.
I just pause it. I don't consider speed to be the purpose, the purpose is do you know the answer. Memory is different from knowledge, and requires the ability to pull out knowledge that you do have at the right time, and that's a whole other thing which doesn't have anything to do with what you actually know or not.
Tidbit on Earths circumference: That it is such a nice, round number is no coincidence. The meter originally was defined to be as close as possible to the 10 millionth part of the distance from the equator to the pole as known at the time.
Really enjoy trivia. Keeps my brain in shape. Not as young as I used to be. My family and I like to do trivia when we get together. Any kind of word games. Havent done too badly with the ones Ive done. The 20 questions was the toughest so far. 18 right. Its like doing homework, but much more fun. I dont have to do these. 😄
These questions would be better if the player was allowed to tap their answer and have the chosen answer immediately graded as correct or not correct. It is annoying to wait for the timer to run out for each question. Sometimes it takes too long.
So i got 14, score.. In my points of View this not for Geniuses or intelligent people on UA-cam App, Simply, this is for Fun games, to gain more knowlwdge about Geography & to give knowledge to all viewers about Worlds records on Geograpiya... thanks for sharing.. 👍😎
I agree that 3 seconds is enough to work out the answers. However, I quite enjoyed that! Did badly at school in Geography, but managed to get all but 2 questions right. Maybe I'm a later developer!! Ha! Ha! :-)
Reasonable. But some were not about geography. I noted 2 examples, the year of building the tower was a history exercise, the tornado question was about the natural world.
17/20,but the question about the eiffel tower is a history topic, not geography. Anyway, I had fun! These trivia questions made me realize that my long-term memory is still working. 😂
17 of 20... looks like my geography reading has paid off somewhat!!!lots of fun on these trivia quizzes...you can test your knowledge and learn something new every time...keeps the brain in top shape !!!🌍🌎🌏
The formation of tornadoes is a result of the western mountains and eastern with the plains in between and the gulf to the South. Fujita scale measures the intensity of a tornado, therefore geography.
Rick Gano Geography may affect tornadoes but that doesn’t mean everything about tornadoes is geography. Tornadoes are weather and the measuring and studying of weather is meteorology not geography
It is actually West Philippine Sea. It is part of the 200 notical miles exclusive economic zone of Philippines' territory written in 1987 Constitution of the Philippines based by the description of UNCLOS which has the guidelines governing countries surrounded by bodies of water or sealocked countries. China claim it only for "historical rights".
19 out of 20 ... I learned that Asia has more people than Africa, which I should have gotten anyway because China and India account for about 3 billion people on their own. Thanks for the the trivia questions.
For those who do not know: America is another name for the United States. To my knowledge none of the other "American" nations such as Mexico, Canada, etc. use the name "America" except the USA.
For #14 I think you mean "How many states does the USA have?" The number of all of the states in all of the countries of the Americas combined would be a lot higher than 50.
Don't you hate when people say the United States Of America has 52 states, I mean where do you get that from, Alaska and Hawaii aren't the extra 2, its part of the 50.
URSUS HORRIBLES - Obama never said the USA has 56 states. He was referring to a campaign swing in which he made visits to 56 states, some of them twice and one three times. And you knew that, you're just picking gnat shit out of pepper. You are the reason why a guy like Trump got traction.

"Which country was FORMERLY known as Siam? China does not control Taiwan, which remains Nationalist Chinese in spite of the wishes of the People's Republic of China.
It doesn't say China controls Taiwan. China is known as The People's Republic of China and Taiwan in The Republic of China. The island of Taiwan is within the Republic of China.
Please make the questions waaaaaay harder. I got 18/20 on 2x speed. The last question is not very clear at all. The exact sizes and definitions of "bodies of water" are not set.
We who prefer silence in videos aren’t “too stupid” as you say. I happen to be a professional musician and I DO NOT need every moment of my life set to music. You seem too lazy to provide for your own apparent needs.
Number 14 was written wrong.50 states would correct if you would have asked how states in the USA. By saying America it would more. Mexico has states also.
Interesting, but could you please correct your use of “it’s “? “It’s” is the contraction, or shortened version, of “it is”, so an apostrophe is only used if you mean “it is”, otherwise, the word should be “its”, with no apostrophe. Can be confusing though!

Yeah wtf, it's west Philippine sea not China Sea China has Corona virus Ewss AHHAAHHA
True nagulat din ako
It's because it was posted last 2016

I agree and I think he answered China because that Yonaguni is not visible on the map compared to Mainland China. Just Saying.
cool cool
Its closest to China maybe because they claim it as China also so its closest to itself..
It's closer to Chinese islands just off their SW coast, ergo China is correct.
I think that MIGHT be because of some LITTLE islands Japan has - BUT, Taiwan is CLOSER to China

"In what year did construction of the Eiffel tower begin?" is NOT geography.
GEOGRAPHY: Definition includes "study of the natural and the(human) built environment". That's why structures like the Eiffel Tower, the Taj Mahal, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, etc. are considered the proper studies in the science of geography. Forget what you were taught back in high school, the science has moved on. Of course, these structures can also be studied under many other disciplines, but those are the subjects for other UA-cam videos.
