For the second one, Louisiana (and its peninsula) fits better. Florida forms the eastern boundary of the Gulf of Mexico and doesn't so much "jut into" it.
A quick look at Wikipedia titles shows that it's primarily known as Italian Penninsula in Romance/English world, and elsewhere usually as Apennine Peninsula
Scandinavia is a region of countries NOT a peninsula. from Wikipedia we get "The term Scandinavia is usually used as a cultural term, but in English usage, it is occasionally confused with the purely geographical term Scandinavian Peninsula, which took its name from the cultural-linguistic concept." so please correct your answer to reflect the proper geographic term.
This was my understanding, as well. Though googling "Scandinavian Peninsula" reveals quickly that this, too, is a thing. Maybe the issue could be resolved simply by adding an "n" to the end of the answer? There is both a region called Scandinavia (which is not a peninsula), and a Scandinavian Peninsula.
Took this quiz before and after I left for college. Same results, but I got [Kamchatka](http://www.beamsuntory.com/brands/kamchatka) this time. I'm learning so much!
You should allow "Gibralta" for "Gibraltar". Every time I forget the R. To Englishman, both spellings would have the same pronunciation, so it's easy to forget the R is there.
That's not the way it is written though. "Gibraltar" and "Gibralta" may have the same pronunciation, but the latter is a wrong spelling of the city. You wouldn't either accept "Arkansa" instead of "Arkansas", would you?
Here’s a list of hard spelling words: Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte, the capital of Sri Lanka; phlegm; N’Djamena, the capital of Chad; Nouakchott, the capital of Mauritania; Nuku’alofa, the capital of Tonga; Iqaluit, the capital of Nunavut; Bloemfontein, a capital of South Africa; Mbabane, the capital of Eswatini; Worcestershire sauce; Punxsutawney, home to a groundhog named Phil; Heilongjiang, a province in China; Szczecin, a city in Poland; Székesfehérvár, a city in Hungary; Hafnarfjörður, a city in Iceland; Błaszczykowski, a footballer/soccer player; Saaremaa and Hiiumaa, two Estonian islands; Oeiras, a subregion of Greater Lisbon; Euboea, a Greek island; Çanakkale, a Turkish city; Sokhumi and Tbilisi, two Georgian cities; ‘S-Hertogenbosch, a city in the Netherlands; Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, a Dutch scientist; Arkansas; Braunschweig, a German town. Thanks for reading this excessive rant. Oh, and of course, Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, a Welsh town.
More imaginative names? Have you seen the names of places in the US?! They're all named after already existing places, and from what I've seen that's not even much of an exaggeration.
Still, we haven't been very original with naming places recently either - half of the places the British Empire went to in the C19 ended up being called Victoria...
Scandinavia ALWAYS refers to Sweden, Norway, and Denmark. Sweden, Norway and Finland is the Scandinavian Peninsula (AKA Fennoscandia). I know there are already a bunch of comments on this, but you really should change it. It's as simple as adding an 'n'.
(Which would work just as well without the famous part. But I guess that comes with this day and age, if you dont promote/advertise your stuff as amazing, unbelievable, noone will pay attention (or that is at least the logic behind it, sensationalizing everything. Clickbait anyone?)
This latter part is not meant as a negative comment towards the quiz btw. It is not comparable with clickbait etc just one thing that reminded me of the next.
Those are the regions, while the peninsula of Scandinavia is Norway, Sweden, and Finland. That's like saying Indochina is just Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia, instead of Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, and Malaysia.

**Facepalm**
