United Kingdom is not a country it is an agglomeration of 4 countries; England, Scotland, Wales & Northern Ireland. Stonehenge is in England although the blue stones are from Wales.
I gave myself a 'tick' for saying England, as I agree!
Yes.. so do I ..👍🏴
@@Ionabrodie69 Same here as Stonehenge is in England as opposed to Scotland. This is when specifics are required.
Completely agree for the simple reason that you are 100% correct.
Damn the Davis Strait!
And Stanley... at least I know now 🤷♂️
Was it named for Sammy?
Q. 38. Strictly speaking the answer should be England not the United Kingdom. England is the country.
That's what I thought too.
England is one of 4 parts of the country of the United Kingdom so technically they are correct, but in this case, I think you would be fully justified in saying you answered the question correctly if you said England.
@@karencotlar2023 Since the country which contains Stonehenge is England not any off the other countries which are part of the UK, anything other than England is incorrect.
stone henge is in england.
england is in united kingdom
@@lionman8376 Ya, but the question asks, "which country?" Is England not a country?
Whereas it could be argued that the UK is not a country but rather a sort of a confederation of the countries Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and England.
@@MisterHowzat englamd is not a country its a nation
@@lionman8376 Oh, so you wanna go down this rabbit hole? OK, how about you give me some examples of countries and nations so as to help me to see things your way.
Tell you what.... How about I name some "countries" and you tell me whether they are countries or "nations":
Italy
China
Egypt
Argentina
The USA
Ukraine
Finland
Indonesia
New Zealand
Ghana
Looking forward to seeing your answers.
@@MisterHowzatI bet he’s not even British.. but a yank.. and we all know how bright they are..🙄🏴🇬🇧
37/40. Good quiz. Mostly not hard questions
Q. 39. The Pantanal is (by far) the largest “marsh” in the world. The Everglades is approx 20,000sq kms.The Pantanal is over 10x this size and straddles three countries.
FYI, most geographers don’t consider Australia an island because it is a continental mass
Greenland is the largest island
30/40. Geography was my fav subject in school.
About question 13: There is indeed the Davis Strait between Greenland and Canada. But there is also the Labrador Sea and the Bafin Bay. Question 25: Dubai is an Emirate that is part of the United Arab Emirates. The later is probably a better answer. 39: The Panatanal is probably a better answer. 38: I would accept both UK and England. England is not sovereign, but is a country part of the UK. See also Q25.
Regarding the question about national flags. Switzerland also has a non-rectangular flag. It's square.
A square is a rectangle.
I stand corrected.
30/40 enjoyable quiz thanks
Question 22
Switzerland also has a non-rectangular flag.
It's square.
There are three countries. Nepal, Switzerland and Vatican City
A square is a rectangle, Nepal is the correct answer with it's two triangles

@@jimmeade2976 What? Why bother to have a separate name for a square?
Is a tube now a circle?
Good grief what’s wrong with people? A Square is NOT a rectangle.
@@rivermoon6190 Sorry mate - Google it - I agreed with you until I did.
The currency a nation chooses to use has nothing whatever to do with geography. Neither does the shape of it's flag. Those are purely political decisions.
Q27. Not sure if this is an attempt at a trick question as Greenland is the largest island in the world and not the 2nd largest. in fact New Guinea is the 2nd largest island in the world. Australia is a continent and therefore the criteria that is commonly used to distinguish one from another means that Australia cannot be classified as an island!
Wrong. Australia is a country located on the continent of Oceania.
37/4o
Question 23 regarding a city destroyed by the Vesuvius in 79CE: there were two, the answer and Herculaneum. And the people claiming Australia is a continent are wrong. It's a country located on the continent of Oceania.

Impossible lier. More than 5 of the questions have incorrect answers.
Vesuvius also destroyed the Roman city of Herculaneum.
In responce to Phil below regarding time zones; Canada has a sixth time zone, Newfoundland standard Time, which is one half hour later than Atlantic Time. Our fifth time zone Atlantic Standard Time occurs in the Maritime provinces of Canada; Nova Scotia, NewBrunswick and Prince Edward Island. All of Canada with the exception of Saskachewan revert to daylight saving time in the Spring.

Fantastic
37/40, enjoyed the content a good quiz thank you. Please consider another Geography quiz?
Impossible as 8 of the answers the quiz gave are incorrect.
Q. 8. “Highest” mountain is rather a subjective way to ask this question. In theory Chimborazo, Denali or Mauna Loa could all lay claim to such a title.
The three mountains you mention are all TALLER (from base to peak) than Everest, but the peak of Everest is highest (above sea level). That's how my geography teacher explained it to me anyway! I agree the question could have included 'above sea level' to remove the confusion.
@@aussierhino471 But Chimborazo is closest to outer space. Why ? because earth is an oblate sphere.
@@journeyman553 Very interesting. but I don't see how the shape of the earth changes the height of a mountain. Cheers.
@@aussierhino471 It depends entirely where you are measuring from. From space the tallest mountain is Chimborazo. From sea level it's Everest. The earth is not round but is an oblate sphere, like a squished ball earths equator sticks out more than the poles. So measured from the center of the earth or from space Chimborazo is the tallest mountain. This is not speculation but FACT.
@@journeyman553 I understand that - that's why I said in my original post that I believe the measurement is height above sea level.
30
Technically, Stonehenge is in England.
37 . not bad .
Good quiz ... 37/40 right
Q. 16. The official name of Thailand previously was actually “the Kingdom of Siam”
You would have to knock them for not saying the Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal, the Dominion of Canada, the Russian Federation. Probly more than that. Point is, nobody goes around saying those names, not even themselves. They are perfectly acceptable in the quiz. Chill tf out and do something better with ur time.
@@preston0 I agree with you but wow, there's no need to be rude.
30/40
SoI issued 1. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Q. 37. Okiato could also be a correct answer
Canada also has these 4 time zones among its 6 zones. The States has another time zone in which Hawaii sits.
Australia is not an island; it is a continent. The land mass of North and South America is also not an island. The continent of Antarctic is also not an island.
Also, I do not see currency as anything to do with geography.
But thank you for the quiz. 👍
Australia is not a continent. The continent it's on is Oceania.
Question 8/40 it does not specify Above Sea Level . . it is specifically Highest Mt In The World. . Mauna Kea of Hawaii is 1640 feet taller based on it's "dry prominence". The question should be made clear as to it's Hight measurement because mathematically, Mauna Kea is measurably taller. . It's just not taller above sea level. Place Everest in the Pacific at the same place as Mauna Kea and Everest would come up short.
Cảm ơn c Mây nhiều ạ :p
Australia is NOT an Island!
I have a question for #13 - would Baffin Bay also be an acceptable answer?
yes and also the Labrador strait
I answered this question with "The Atlantic Ocean". The question is not clear.😸

Q. 5 Delhi has a larger population than Mumbai
The city proper population of Mumbai is greater than that of Delhi. Delhi has the most population of the urban agglomerations in India
Technically, a Square is a type of rectangle.
Please accept my apologies for the coral reef, the third is in deed in the States. I understand, it is important to know the size of the coral reefs in order!
I'm not nearly as smart as I thought. I give up.
united kingdom/ great britain is not a country ?
Isn't it a Sovereign State? (got it from google 😅)
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly known as the United Kingdom (UK) or Britain,[note 1][19] is a sovereign country in north-western Europe.
Four countries make up United Kingdom. England ( the right answer), Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland
@@terryrichmond4428 Well said. Obviously Americans/Europeans still don’t understand how the UK works.
@@UltimateQuizzes If someone asked an American where Times Square was would they say the USA or New York?
Therefore Stonehenge is in England!
Bruh Antarctica is already ice land I mean it has ice all over

Why don't you relax
These are fun, but in every one you make mistakes on the questions.
May I suggest a bit of research before launching a quiz: Switzerland and the Vatican have square flags. As for the biggest coral reef it is not in the US but in Queensland, Australia.
The question was which us state has the 3rd largest coral reef not the largest.
not to be rude but squares are in fact rectangles so they are not wrong on that one either.
@@Larter232 Do you know what a rectangle is? Do you know what a square is? If they are the same why do they have different names? Smh
@@rivermoon6190 alright alright i guess im wrong
i mean its not like those "square" flags have 2 pairs of 2 equal sides right
all interior angles are 90 degrees
has a total of 4 lines to make the shape
you are right they are definitely only squares and not rectangles
@@rivermoon6190 He’s right, 🤦♂️, you don’t know WTF you’re talking about. A square is a rectangle.
Switzerland's flag is square, just saying
A square is a special type of rectangle!
Q 18. This is a bad way to ask this question. Are you asking about the country Australia or the continent? If the country then it has two; one on Heard Island and one on MacDonald Island.
Q27: Australia isn’t an “island”. Australia is a continent.
Nope. Australia is a country sitting on the continent of Oceania.
@@JimmyRJump You can jump up and down, but Australia is still a continent!
100th comment
Q38. Really sorry and not wanting to be over critical, but stating that Stonehenge can be found in the the country of the United Kingdom is totally incorrect. The COUNTRY is England. The UK is a group of different countries. This is like asking in which country can the Eiffel Tower be found?, with the answer being Europe!
Is Australia really just an island?
Australia is absolutely NOT an island!
Driest place on earth is atacama dessert

UK is not a country--England is
Q. 27. Australia is considered a continent not an Island. Therefore the correct answer is New Guinea
Are you out of your mind?
@@joepkortekaas8813 Sorry… What is the problem?
@@NebraskaGonvilleJones New Guinea as the largest island? It's Greenland! Area New Guinea 786,000 km2, Greenland 2.166 million km2!
@@joepkortekaas8813 The question was; name the second largest island in the world after Australia… (Australia is not an island) therefore the second largest island is New Guinea as Greenland is the largest.
@@NebraskaGonvilleJones I stand corrected, I read it the wrong way!
this feels incredibly american...
Which is why a lot of the Quizzes he does the answers to the questions are incorrect🙄🏴🇬🇧
