Intersting. Type in five or six countries and it almost done. Can you accept Moors for Spain and Portugal? And as the Kalmar Union was essentially the Danish monarch perhaps accept Denmark.

I just put Kalmar union in there to make it harder.

Morocco didn't exist when Spain was founded. A more accurate answer might be Umayyad Caliphate which conquered most of Iberia, but never the county of Castile or the kingdom of Leon from which the Kingdom of Castile grew out of. A more accurate answer might be Castile and Aragon, two kingdoms that had existed for a couple hundred years before they united to form Spain.

Oh, and Portugal is missing. See my statement about, though I'd say that Portugal came out of the Umayyad Caliphate's successor state the Caliphate of Cordoba.

This whole quiz is a mess. I intend to get around to fixing it in the next couple of days. Thank you for pointing this out.
