Let's Build a Fascinating DIY Globe & Learn Geography! 🌍🎓

Finally, some me time.

Hey, what's going on?

This is a disaster!

I found geography!

Why do I need to learn about all these made up countries?

Oh, Sammy, they're not made up.

There are almost 200 countries in the world.

Wait, what do you mean?

They're not made up!

Okay, Mr. Smartypants, let's make a globe and I'll show you.

Now that sounds like fun!

I promise you'll get better in geography.

Denneau, it seems impossible to remember.

Oh, don't be so pessimistic.

I'm the definition of optimism.

Can you pass me the pieces for the craft, then?

All right, all right!

Here, a new batch.

Hot off the presses.

Thanks. Now, let's get you ready for the exam.

Tell me, which countries do you already know?

Well...

How about Wonderland?

Hey, it's a fictional country.

Still a country, though!

Okay, then maybe I'll help you out and tell you about...

Let's say three of my favorite countries.

How does that sound?

Really? You know that much?

Tell me everything!

All right, have you ever heard of China?

China, huh? My ball was made there.

Not just that.

China is huge.

It's more than nine-and-a-half million square kilometers.

That's like a thousand of tibidabas.

No way!

So if I wanted to walk across it,

I'd never make it in my whole lifetime.

Yeah, it would take you ages.

By the way, I think you'd like Chinese fireworks.

Shibbermeet Chatters. They invented fireworks, too.

Everyone knows how much I love all things bright, shiny, and...

Oh, I think your fireworks blew some of the parts away.

Did you see where they are?

One moment.

Sue, what do you think of my Chinese-inspired outfit?

I think it looks great.

But, Sammy, you never brought the pieces.

Huh?

All right, here you go. I made it myself.

Are you sure about this?

Huh, I've definitely seen it before.

You're imagining things, Sue.

I'm telling you.

Why don't you tell me what else you know about China?

Hmm.

Well, China is the homeland of the cutest pandas.

Pandas?

Where?

Right here.

Alrighty, here we are, with half the work done.

Shall we continue exploring other countries?

Of course. You're such a good teacher.

Thanks. Friends, let's start conquering new lands.

So, what's your next favorite country, Sue?

Maybe Brazil?

Hmm.

Keep guessing.

Then how about America?

Well, yeah, but okay, let's now talk about Italy.

Huh, it's because you like pizza so much, right?

You know me so well.

But Italy doesn't just make the most delicious pizza.

Did you know that they invented it?

Mama Mia!

So, their pizza geniuses are something?

Yup.

And also, I read somewhere that the very first pizza was made for a queen.

For a queen?

Seriously?

Okay, where's the pizza line for royalty?

In the Italian city of Venice, there are no cars.

People travel by boats called gondolas.

Wow.

I can only imagine going to school by boat.

Uh-oh.

Sammy, please be careful.

Better yet, stop playing around and get me some more parts for the craft.

Alrighty.

Behold, Gladiator Sam brings the pieces of the world from the great Roman Empire.

Thank you, Mr. Gladiator.

Yeah, the Roman Empire is my favorite era.

Gladiator's epic battles and slimes.

Wait, slimes?

For real?

Sammy, I don't think slimes were part of the Roman Empire.

Oh, but they were.

In fact, the greatest Gladiators were slimes.

Ha-ha!

Heard about the Colosseum.

Well, the slimes was even bigger.

The slimes, you're totally making that up.

Not at all.

We fought the toughest battles with honor.

And of course, a little goo.

Hey, stand still and let me clean your ears.

Well, if the slimes was real, I'm guessing it was sticky.

No, Sue.

It was legendary.

And every battle ended with a big cheer of Tibidol from the crowd.

Tibidol, huh?

Sounds a lot like Tibidolba.

Coincidence? I don't think so.

Oh, Sammy, you would have gotten an A on the history exam.

That's for sure.

So now you are messing with me?

Okay, let me tell you another interesting fact about Italy.

You better be.

Italian carnival appeared a long time ago.

And it's all about dressing up music and mystery.

See, that's why I love Italy so much.

I'd be the king of the carnival.

They'd call me the Slime of Venice.

Slime of Venice?

That sounds cool.

They'd probably hand you a crown made of glitter and everything.

Okay, the base of our globe is ready.

It's time to check if everything works as it should.

As far as I'm concerned, everything works great.

Let's do a spin check.

You ready?

Wow!

You too?

How am I going to have time to learn everything?

It spins too fast!

Don't worry, I got you.

Okay, everything works fine.

Ready to move on to the next part?

I was born ready.

Yeah!

I guess that's all that was missing.

Uh-huh.

We're just a little bit away from being done.

Wait, I'm waiting for the name of your third favorite country.

No, no, don't say it.

I'm going to guess.

France, Australia, um, Switzerland maybe, or Sweden.

No, no, and no.

Do you give up?

Yeah, all right, I can't guess it.

Name it.

It's India.

Admitted too, you just made it up.

No, I didn't.

India is a real country and has more people living there

than any other country.

Can you pass me those parts over there?

Hold on.

India sounds interesting.

Give me a push so I can go there.

I'm afraid it's not going to be possible to get there on this.

Can't a slime have a dream?

Tell me more about this India then.

Okay, for one, there are many fascinating animals there.

Really? I love animals.

What are they, Sue?

Tigers, elephants, and even rhinos.

Can you imagine?

Wow!

Hey, that thing looks like a rhinos horn.

It gave me an idea.

We could make a sci-fi movie about a rhino traveling around the world.

Speaking of movie making,

India is home to the world's largest film industry, Bollywood.

Awesome, we also have our own Bollywood here.

Say hello.

Say hello.

Let's not forget who the biggest star is here.

Excuse me, star.

I could use some help.

I'm on it.

Here you go, Susie.

Here's another cool fact about India.

You would love Diwali,

a fun festival of lights.

People decorate their homes with lights and garlands,

set off fireworks,

and prepare delicious sweets.

Sweet, say no more.

Is that all you got out of what I said?

That's it. I'm ready to go to India.

I think this country is just the right fit for me.

Oh, you even got your costume ready?

That's great!

Hey!

That's a bit too much of the spirit of the celebration.

The North Pole is at its place.

Now, why don't we speed things up?

Voila!

Oh, done!

Here's just one final touch.

A compass.

Wow, it's so we don't get lost, right?

Yeah.

Lost in the flow of knowledge.

All right, Sue.

I'm ready to discover the whole world.

Wee!

So we're heading north east.

India.

Chever me, Chetters.

You know that there's a lot more countries out there, right?

Do you underestimate me, Susan?

Oh, I would never.

Great, because I'm the Lord of the Globes.

And now, I know it all!

All right, Sam.

Let's see how ready you are for your geography exam.

Huh, go ahead, Sue.

You can ask me anything.

Okay.

Here's an easy one.

What's the boot-shaped country in Europe called?

Italy.

And they make the best pizza.

Correct.

Now, what's the country known for its festival of lights and colorful traditions?

It's right over here.

Easy peasy.

It's India.

And don't forget the spicy food in amazing festivals.

Impressive, Sam.

Here's a tricky one.

Which country has the Amazon rainforest?

I know.

I'll show you.

Brazil.

So did I pass?

You sure did, Sammy.

I think you're all set for your exams.

Yay!
