Answer 1

> a random ass country

Being familiar with foreign languages really helps. Can you tell the difference between Italian, Spanish and Portuguese? What about Chinese, Japanese and Korean? German, Dutch and Danish? I can, but plenty of people can’t. I’ve been on Geoguesser and worked out the country purely by the language of the signs, not even necessarily what they say.
