There is something wrong with this quiz. Croatia and Slovenia and the Czech republic only exist for some years. Belgium was founded in 1830, and borders the Netherlands which were founded even earlier.

Read the description. This is to do with Median Age of the population, not with year founded.

This is about the median age of the population, not when the country was founded.

I think I was able to immediately understand that this refers to the populations and not the countries themselves, but I suppose a small wording change wouldn't hurt
