the changes are good. I especially like that it scrolls down automatically when a row is complete. Maybe mix them up a bit more,but at least you did that a bit towards the end.

One of the reasons this is difficult for me is a lot of the small countries (Liechtenstein, etc) are blown up to the same size as big countries (USA, etc) and I don't recognize them!

It would be nice if you could see the influence of the order. So the answers in order with percentages. Or maybe the nr of their order included in the answers. (Only when you dont decide to randomize the countries which I think is a fair suggestion)

This was awesome... thanks for this quiz!

Since I often confused similar shapes, I tried to sort the arrangement a little bit:

This way you can find (and remember) the little details that distinguish one from the other more easily. I hope you'll like it.

You should change the shape of Mauritius to just the main island (the big one seen in the bottom left). When people talk about Mauritius they always refer to the main island, the other islands are more like territories part of the country (kinda like the USA with Hawaii/Alaska or the UK with all its pacific and Atlantic territories, everyone referes to the British Islands when speaking of the UK). I live in Mauritius and I struggled to find it lmaoooo

Part of what helps me is it's always in the same order. Maybe use random order to make it tougher and/or list the countries once guessed correctly to make it easier.

What order are the countries in? It seems like it might be easiest to hardest? It would be better if it were a different order (randomly chosen) every time you do that quiz. Because otherwise I find that, if I do the quiz over and over, I am memorizing the order rather than the shapes.
