10 minutes is not long. i still had 97 countries to go - had thought of a few pretty obscure ones, but nothing beginning with p, for example - sorry pakistan, poland, peru, portugal, paraguay...

I remembered 76. The time limit is pretty tight, though. If you wanted to get all of them, you would have to enter a new country every 3 seconds.

3.125 seconds to be more precise.

If you managed to name all 192 countries in 3 seconds rather than the 3.125 allowed you would save yourself 24 seconds.

good to know. but it only takes a second or two to type most of the names - probably even the longest would take only 3 or 4 seconds - so there's time if we learned the list by rote. i'm giving that possibility some thought.

i'm also thinking about writing a musical based on the life of salman rushdie.

I got 132 but forgot some very obvious ones such as our immediate neighbours to the west and our rivals down under. 😳
