World Geography with Yakko Warner

Anyone else remember the Animaniacs?

Yakko, Wakko and Dot were three of my favourite cartoon characters growing up. But were they educational as well as entertaining? I don’t remember being edified, but it seems the show’s creators snuck bits of knowledge in.

Here’s Yakko’s comprehensive, singing tour of global political geography – it’s dated (Yugoslavia, anyone?) and puts rhyme ahead of strict geographical fact, but it’s still a lot of fun.

See if you can keep up:
