Felt a bit silly missing French Guiana; then again, in French it doesn't start with an F. It starts with a G: Guyane ...

Agree as well. I don't care how many U.S. questions there are in these quizzes, if people want to moan, go make their one versions.

Sorry if that was mean. I understand is would be nicer if there were more South American questions, but is is hard to do.

Yes, one of the South America questions was the "fifth-largest" city which indicates F is not an easy letter to work with in the Americas.

Excellent quiz! - Thank you for the inclusion of Martinique (which is seldom included. If the lesser known islands are included at all, it is

usually Guadeloupe)) and French Guiana (which is most often used as a point of argument).

Yet another US navel gazing quiz that pretends to be international. Sigh.

yeah the problem with making your own quiz is that unless it happens to be featured, almost nobody is going to see it

Fredonia AZ is closer to the North Rim than Flagstaff is to South Rim of Grand Canyon. But Fredonia is not a city and probably only those who live (or used to live) nearby would know this.

Around 13 or 14 of the questions are to do with the US. It says Americas not US
