Check what is accepted for DRC, and please accept USA and UK. Interesting reordering of the countries. I'm surprised France isn't in there.

Sorry, I've been having some problems with my Internet recently, and as a result, many of my quizzes aren't saving, so that's why some of the type ins didn't work.

Norway's territory is mainly from Antarctica, like the UK. France also has lots of territory, but unfortunately is only about 1 million km2.

I didn't think Antarctica belonged to anybody, by international agreement. Is that what makes Australia so huge, too?

Well I added their territorial claims to this quiz, otherwise they quiz would have been virtually the same to the original one.
