There are all sorts of neat geography games on the internet these days but this one has to be one of the best.
Travle is a game that tests your border knowledge by asking you to travel from one country to another in the shortest route possible, i.e. through the least amount of countries. Sometimes the shortest route is not the one that you thought it would be..
Here’s the link so you can have a play yourselves: https://imois.in/games/travle/
There’s so many versions of the game too including UK Counties, US States, and states and regions from countless other countries. Great fun!

In Iowa, try putting the accent on the "I". 😉
So it’s quickest in terms of number of countries/states/counties rather than distance?
That whole history of the Austro-Hungarian Empire might also be a clue that they are next to each other, just saying. 😜
14:15 Essex looks like an outline of ludicolo and now I can't unsee it.
They should name this game "illegal immingrant training simulator"
Its the refugee game.
13:00 because you did illinois first so the best rout right now is either by indiana or michigan
Poland borders Russia through Kaliningrad, so although its an exclave of Russia, you only need go 'Germany, Poland, Russia and Georgia or Azerbaijan).
LOL.. that Siri fasco was so classic and typical. "Useless bitch" is spot on. I love Apple, but they've gotta get their shit together. LOL
"Greece trap" LOL

You activated my Homepod's Siri hahah!
As a mexican who doesn't have a ton of knowledge about GB's geography, man you really like your shires hahaha
Indiana is green because it is the best option AFTER you got one (number 5–Illinois) incorrect.
This was fun
Well, couldn't you have gone turkey->greece->italy->Switzerland? Doenst greece have a maritime border with italy?
You should run across Gambia in a straight line with hardest geezer
The typing is unnaturally loud. Is your microphone unsuspended on your desk or do you have the clunkiest rubber dome keyboard ever?
It's not a huge deal but it's one of those little things that I've seen hold creators back. I might not stop watching when I hear that but some will. It's much deeper in tone and therefore invasive than just normal mechanical clicky clacky.

I’m from gloucestershire so spent the final game shouting at the screen hahaha
Hey Tom, there is an unlimited version of Travle on the web! I sent you a link to this one on Oct 2nd. I would be amazing if you would check it out ☺️
Just out of curiosity:
After all that amazing stuff you did on Geoguessr, I always thought you are some sort of omniscient mastermind, knowing the world map in detail and on a small scale almost by heart. How come you have hard time picturing a simple political map in your head?
No offense, I still think you are a great mastermind in geography and several other areas of human knowledge, I’m just really wondering about how human brain and memory work sometimes.
Indiana is green because you had already made an error and thus Indiana route was same length as Michigan route
i did syria , turkey , georiga , russia , poland , czechia , austria . same amount of countries but not as direct lol
I wonder if Denmark (Bornholm), Poland, Russia (Kaliningrad), Azerbaijan, Armenia would be a valid route.
Ioooowa
first one you could've taken ferry to poland from denmark
for the first one it could also have been straight from poland to russia. kaliningrad should count
I Oh Ugh
How long till the next video ?
It marked Indiana orange because of Kentucky
Shouldn't you be able to go from Greece to Italy to Austria to Lichtenstein if you can go over water?
As you said sea borders are valid, i think you could get a "shorter" route from Lebanon to Liechtenstein: If you go from Turkey to Greece, from Greece to italy and from Italy either to austria or Switzerland you shorten it by 2 countries.
Denmark – Canada – Russia – done
I would like to see a EU4 version of this
12:30 driving wise you are correct, Google maps would recommend you go through Indiana and Illinois because the roads in the upper peninsula are absolute garbage
"You are in the top 69%."
Nice.
🤣
O wonder if you could go straigt from Denmark to Poland, because of the Bornholm island.
