Nice quiz. I particularly loved the fact that for the question "which country's French name is Cote D'Ivoire?", the answer "Cote D'Ivoire" is accepted. More seriously, following four questions, the answers to which are (in order) San Marino, Vatican City, Lesotho and UK, the next question asks "what are the capitals of the above?" (four answers) - you can't answer "San Marino, Vatican City, Maseru and London". Also, there are 7 countries of the former Yugoslavia - you missed out Kosovo and North Macedonia.

Hi there,

Thank you for the feedback. The answer for the capitals of the four countries, this references the 4 countries of the UK (NI considered a country for this). I excluded Kosovo as at the time of Yugoslavia it was not independent and used Macedonia instead of North Macedonia as this was the name at the time.

I hope this clears it up and thank you for the feedback, first quiz was fun to make
