I'm not sure if I'm the weird one for having no idea where most counties are, or only a rough idea. Do most people know where most of the counties are? Do you think you could reliably label most of a map of the uk with the correct counties?

I looked online for a quiz and found this: https://www.geoguessr.com/vgp/3146?gamemode=pinhard

I got 62% but I think that mostly overrepresents my knowledge because towards the end a lot of them were gimmies just by the process of elimination. I was on the game mode "pin (easy)" - I think "pin (hard)" is much better as a knowledge test so I'd recommend that mode.

Would you say Brits are expected to know where counties are? Like if someone said they live in Sussex, or Berkshire, or Tyne and Wear, and I said idk where that is, would you think that's dumb or reasonable?

edit: this video is very good imo, discusses the counties and the history of them, but concludes that they don't really matter any more and are essentially a historic artifact. They say most people can't name or locate most of the counties, which makes me feel better lol.
