OK guess, the way the internet works, is like this. When you ask to see a webpage, the page is divided into many small packets. Each packet finds the fasted path from the server to you.
If you live on the West coast and try to see a website that is housed in Turkey, some packets may travel through the underwater cable in the Pacific Ocean through Asia to Turkey, others may travel through the underwater cables in the Atlantic Ocean to Germany to Turkey.
Also large websites have multiple servers all over the world, and depending on your location, it will send you to the closest server.
The best way to find out the speeds is if you do a trace root for a website that way you know where the servers are house. It should also state the time that it needed to go from server to server
I don’t know what the outcome of this will have and I really don't care either way, but have fun with it.
If somebody has a better idea, please post it.
