Map of USA labeled by an Aussie who's never been here...

Used to love doing the geography quizzes on Sporcle, too

~12-15 years ago I had the "all the countries in the world" quiz down where I could name all of them in about 10 minutes. I went back and tried it again a couple years ago and ... oof, I did not retain that ability

I would have had 4 - Queensland, New South Wales, Tasmania, and Western Australia. Mostly because I read a series of books about a fictional family which started with their original ancestor who came to Australia as a prisoner, and her descendants through to present day Australia. Kind of like the John Jakes "Americans" series...

Given enough time, I may have been able to name Queensland. Maybe Victoria too if I was given the hint that the UK named something this name (Victoria) almost everywhere.

I hate that. But at the same time, it's kind of fun(ny) to think "I've forgotten more about this **** than most people ever knew in the first place!"
