So I got 11. Zero points, but waaaay better than I thought I would do. One of the reasons I love Jetpunk is because I learn so much more than school ever taught me. Not to sound too kum-ba-yah, but it's a beautiful world in spite of all of the craziness and it's fun to stick your head outside and have a look around.

I was totally thrown off by the phrasing "traditional vessel" for dhow. I kept trying to think of some kind of cup, or pitcher, or serving bowl, or something like that. Vessel is an odd word choice for a type of boat.

Hint for country quizzes: always type in the name of the country, "oil", and "uk". High odds that's good for 3 answers.

I tried Dau and Dhau, because that's how I've seen it spelled. A few more acceptable spelling variants for that one would be nice.

Yes. The species is the Barbary falcon. The displayed answer should reflect this, although the less specific 'falcon' should be accepted.
