The Dutch Cape Colony seems to be before South Africa's independence. Basutoland and British Cape Colony are already considered and listed as United Kingdom since they appear to be colonies, not independent nations.

I think I only did that with South Peru. Thanks for catching it, I removed the link. (It used to be included, but I removed it from the quiz since its status was similar to England, which isn't usually counted as a country by JetPunk.)
