I consider myself a geography buff, and this still was really hard.

People attempting to draw the United States, with all states included, from memory:

I went ahead and tried myself .

To my credit, I actually got all 50 states in there. But some of their shapes were seriously distorted. Wisconsin and Missouri for example. I think drawing the shoreline around the Great Lakes region was the hardest part.

And I inverted Kansas and Nebraska.

2. Someone finally found "What"

I'm dying to know what language is spoken there.

3. For years I used to leave out Louisiana

when drawing the outline of the Gulf Coast. This naturally resulted in the Northeast sticking out like a giant peninsula.

Needless to say, this was before I lived in NOLA!!

4. Those were pretty funny.

I used to draw maps of the US as a kid. I got pretty good at the north east, starting with New York (I lived there). My maps got increasingly vague as I got farther south and west.

5. I could do it pretty easily

Hell, if I was still a kid I could mark all the capitals with reasonable accuracy, too...

One part of my final exam in 10th grade world history was doing the entire WORLD -- We didn't have to draw it, but all the countries were blank and we had to label them...Did I mention that this was like a year after the USSR broke up into new, unheard-of countries??

I love geography and still have nightmares thinking about that shit...(But the absolute worst nightmares are re-living those Latin finals )
