This generally is quite a good daily game that I recommend everybody play - really helps with baseline geographical literacy. That "Palestine" is a country option instead of West Bank or Occupied Territories is good even.

But yeah this was a real :picard-direct-action: moment.

    tb"f" that isn't the outline of Palestine, it's missing some land and has some extra land stolen from Syria.

      Yeah I mean they aren't all "countries", they're pretty explicit about that that they're just using a list of countries/territories etc.. If I was the creator of this game I wouldn't wade into adjudicating individual cases of territorial legitimacy across the globe either :shrug-outta-hecks:

    I stopped playing this game when it had Ukraine with Crimea on it once.
