Every time I take this quiz I come up with a set of 5 that I can't verify. I get stumped by at least one set and after time is up I look for a reference and I can't find any set of data that confirms the reported answers, and in fact sometimes I find data that is completely contradictory. For example, every dataset I can find says that Sweden, Norway, and Finland have the most islands of any country, and it's not even close, yet none are in the list. I couldn't find anything confirming the safest roads list, the data was all over the place and no lists I found aligned with what is here.

They are probably all from quizzes on this site, search for the topic quiz and it usually has a source.

Correct, as is mentioned in the description. Many are from the "groups of 5" quizzes on JetPunk too. E.g. here is the quiz for Countries with the most islands

Ah, so the problem is that the category titles here are incomplete. The category in this quiz simply says most islands, while the source quiz says most islands over 10 sq km.

Ah yes, that would be problematic. The issue is by including that sort of data in the category titles, you'd end up with too long category names :P

I'm considering compiling together a spreadsheet of all the categories, their source quiz, and that quiz's source. Although it'll surely take me time to do this if I decide to

New Zealand is in top cars per capita and least air pollution. Being an island with few people helps I guess. Iceland is similar.

Denmark is more expensive than Norway?? That can't be true. According to Eurostat, if Norway is placed at 100, Denmark is at 86 and Iceland at 94.

Netherlands was unexpected as a top orange exporter. Doesn't seem like the climate for it. Perhaps one of their Caribbean territories?

Netherlands has an enormous agriculture sector and is second largest exporter of food in the world. They've figured out a way to pack a bunch of greenhouses onto their land and make them incredibly productive. I'm not completely sure if this is why they can produce so many oranges, but it seems plausible.

Maybe there's just not enough data for it to be included, but I refuse to believe that Vatican City doesn't deserve a spot on "Lowest fertility rate."

I believe they define fertility rate as the average number of children per woman.

Go to "More Options" on the right-hand side of Step 1, under the Advanced dropdown. In there you can set the quiz to be random.

When I saw 'minimum altitude', I assumed it meant highest minimum altitude. Everything else is clear using superlatives (smallest population, biggest economy etc.) so maybe 'lowest point' would be better.

"Most CO2 emissions per Capita" is different from the Quiz of the same name.

This quiz: Qatar, Trinidad, Kuwait, Bahrain, UAE

Nigeria being 5th for alcohol consumption per capita is crazy - isn't half of the population Muslim and therefore doesn't drink?
