I'm European and can't name it. I'm really bad at geography

Edit: looked it up on Google maps. Well... I said I'm bad at geography

ITT: People legitimately trying to name it, people saying "I'm American and I know this is fake," and people who get the joke trying to come up with a good name.

Basquistan.

The Basque population finally won their freedom, and carved out a bit of France for some elbow room.

That's part of Australia. It's where they plan to host Eurovision if they ever actually win it.

Texas is at the bottom of the map, genius. That's obviously West Nevada.

This honestly had me confused for longer than I'd like to admit.

I'm from east asia so european geography isn't my forte. But I like to think I've played even civilizations and total war games to have some familiarity with Europe.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

As an American, this one is easy. That is the strange foreign socialist hellhole with a name I can’t remember because it’s probably not even in English.

I guess you could say that's a rough Newfoundland before it split from Europe (or whatever it was called back then)

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago

It was Oldfoundland back in those days.

The Bay of Biscay. It was notorious when I were a lad. More ferries back then I suppose.
