Small people talk about other people.
Average people talk about things
BIG PEOPLE TALK ABOUT IDEAS.

Dumb question but are you supposed to play this while using google maps? Otherwise I would never solve puzzles like today even with a million tries.

Being that I don't know most countries, I use Google Maps. My hope is that in time I will be able to stop using it.

Are they assigning these countries randomly? Doesn’t seem to be the case based on the past few days.

As an aside, Eswatini is still called Swaziland in this game.

And the democratic Republic of the Congo is just "Congo". Perhaps it's both?

Not necessarily. Have you heard of the Kingdom of Mustang/Upper Mustang?

(Those two are technically not the exact same thing, and yes, you can argue such things aren’t countries)
Obviously we need a qualifier. And IMO most would agree that it needs to be recognized by the UN, otherwise there is no end.

Both Denmark and Greenland were colored and labeled Denmark if you put in Denmark, which is correct. The odd part is that they can only base their hot/cold hints on one of the two, which is obviously confusing.

i see now that you are correct. the second part of your statement is why i was thrown for a loop.

It's not a good game.
