Uganda drives on the left side of the road. In-game, the Google camera car is on the left side β so oncoming traffic comes from the right. The steering wheel is on the right side of the car (visible in reflections). This immediately rules out most of continental Europe, the Americas, and most of Asia.
Uganda is home to half the world's remaining mountain gorillas β trekking to see them in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is one of the most powerful wildlife experiences on Earth. Uganda also contains the source of the Nile, the world's longest river.
