But it is also a quiz an English language quiz, so only the English name should be accepted. Otherwise you might as well ask to accept Corse, Gaule, Dunkerque etc.
For this particular quiz I was thinking in French, so for the lake I put in "Lac Léman" which is what it's called. Maybe accept Leman? (I did eventually figure it out.)
I thought I didn't know much about the geography of France and I'm pretty sure I still don't despite my 20/20. Must be a quiz for non-Europeans/Canadians.
I got 20/20, too. I'm sure you and I know more about French geography than the average person. Probably even more than the average European. Maybe less than the average Frenchman.
For some reason it always takes me a while to remember Strasbourg. Then it seems very obvious after I've remembered it. This time for whatever reason I couldn't get Bordeaux out of my head.
20/20 I love my French neighbours <3 It was very easy though, maybe the Monaco question could be expanded to the '3 smallest countries' Lux, And, Mon. Perhaps a question about the non-French countries that have hosted the 'grand départ´of the Tour de France (actually quite easy to guess though). French region that produces the most wine? Not a stereotype, a genuine point of pride in Bordeaux, like cheese production in the north!
Adding "Leman" as an answer for "Lake Geneva" caused me to get credit when I was typing in "Le Mans." I did not in fact know the answer to the Lake Geneva question.
1) New Caledonia is France's largest island if you consider all of the territories, not just departments.
2) I think you should accept Léman and Lac Léman for Lake Geneva... after all, this is a quiz about France ;).
It was Languedoc Roussillon (near Montpellier) before the former regions merge, now it is Occitanie (around Toulouse and Montpellier).
