Are they really not teaching this stuff anymore? In fifth grade we had to learn all the states and their capitals. On our test, we were given a blank US map and had to fill in the names of all of the states & their capitals plus Washington D.C. We even got points taken away for incorrect spelling. We had to do the same thing in middle school in world history for Europe, and be able to know where certain countries were in South America, Africa, Asia, and knowing that Australia is both a country & a continent.
I like games like this: http://www.travelpod.com/traveler-iq

Or the ones where you have to place the states on an utterly empty map. That's actually harder than you think...

I had been looking for that game for awhile. Thanks.

Great game.
