Hi Mal. Well done on the quiz, but please note that Iguazu Falls are in either Argentina or Brazil, but not in Paraguay. The Itaipu Dam is shared between Paraguay and Brazil, but not the falls.

Thanks 'Pjotrl' Now corrected Iguacu Falls are actually 80% in Argentina and 20% in Brazil. Paraguay is using the falls as a highlight to visiting Paraguay for tourist reasons.

Challenging quiz. Couldn't answer six of them correctly (but was sure the currency question related to a southeast Asian nation and guessed all but the correct one, lol).
