Europe: 46/46 100 % 0 miles 373 seconds (but I was a bit lucky to get some big countries first and then it was easier to place the small ones).
Not so good with US: 78% 107 miles 628 seconds.

duc - Absolutely not!
We have a good school system in Finland, I was/am a good student, and I've always been interested in geography, world affairs and maps!
My work involves all kinds of maps, satellite images etc. so... I can assure you that those results were done without any help or assistance from maps (paper or Google Maps).
I got bored with those geography games... I could have proceeded to more challenging ones I'm sure. And, no, for example, I don't remember the names of the capitals of all African countries. I do know quite a few but not all. |

Europe Lvl3: 93% Avg error 27 miles
USA: 82% avg error 157 miles... but all of it mostly done due to puzzle capabilities... not with knowledge what is supposed to be where 
Africa Lvl3: 89%, 168 miles... i killed my mile-count by not finding the seychelles (because they are sooo tiny)
Asia Lvl3: 88% 124 miles
South America lvl3: 90% 71 miles |
