Thank you. A couple of suggestions for improvements. Firstly, please don't expect us to add the word "mountains" to mountain ranges or the word "sea" to a question about seas; it is tautalogous. Secondly, the Black Sea has a connection to the Med. I know because I saw it last month. Therefore you cannot describe it as an "Inland Sea".

Thank you for the insight! I'm new to making quizzes and due to the fact that tailoring what each answer is down to not having sea or mountains in the name is not as easy as some people might think, I can definitely do it if it suits your needs the best! Also, I figured that because the black Sea is only connected to the Mediterranean through a canal next to Istanbul that it would be like saying the Dead Sea isn't an inland sea because it is technically connected via river to the Mediterranean also. But I can change it regardless if it suits your needs the best!
