There seem to be a few countries missing: Papau New Guinea, East Timor (although maybe not big enough), Central African Republic (CAR), and Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Democratic Republic of Congo is not just a longer official version of the country's name, but an integral part of the name used to distinguish it from the other country with 'Congo' in its name - the Republic of Congo. In fact, both the DRC and the Republic of Congo should probably be included.

Papua New Guinea and the Congos' official names are all longer than two words, therefore not included. Timor-Leste is not big enough to fit in the quiz.

Equatorial Guinea is just barely smaller than Solomon islands; East Timor is further behind, preceded by North Macedonia and El Salvador.

Why isnt Czech Republic included? It's almost 79 000 km2 and therefore bigger than many here

The Czech Republic can also be called as "Czechia". To avoid the confusion, it has been left out.
