This right here is what I first learned Geography off of. I guess it takes a good game like Risk to get people interested in Geo. I sure like it now. :)

Ok, I've broken two of my usual rules: posting a 3rd game on the day, and using way more than 25 dots.
In the first case: sorry (Oh, that's another game...).
In the second case, this ought to be an easy one despite the number of dots.

Ha ha, great game!
I hated those moments when I lost and had to watch my friends go on forever with this game... As much as I loved it in the beginning, because of the thrill.
I think I became interested in geography as a boy, when we played a game called "In search for the white diamond". It was a game situated in Africa. You had to learn where Saint Helena, Dakar, Dar es-Salaam etc were located. And the adventures of Tintin! You really wanted to know all the places he went!
