Fun fact: Before I changed the EuroVision prompt from ‘EuroVision winners that aren’t current countries in Europe’, Yugoslavia had been an answer with only a 8% guessing rate.

Good quiz. Please allow Sao/São Paulo (which is the correct spelling).

I don't get the "Capitals west of the 20th west meridian" answer. After looking at the Wikipedia pages for "20th meridian west" and "Lisbon", I still don't get it.

The other longitude question has me scratching my head, too. Iceland appears to lie on the 18th meridian west. What land does Mexico have on that meridian?

I'm not sure about that one. I checked the answers and the answers are correct as well as the prompt being 117th, not 18th. Setting the formatting to Auto and back to Manual fixed it, but I'm not sure why that happened.

The 17th West meridian passes through the extreme western part of north Africa -- through Mauritania and Senegal. I get that Dakar is a correct answer, but don't get how Apia and Nuku'alofa are correct -- although it appears that they may be the first two capitals west of the 117th meridian. It looks like two of the answers read the question as the 117th and one of the answers reads it as the 17th???

Not sure what I was doing there. Thank you for pointing this out!
