As a nitpicker I'd like to point out that the quote was "U-beki-beki-beki-beki-stan-stan". 4 Beckys, 2 Stans.

He means that Vatican City is the full name of the country.

The Vatican is nót a country it is the Holy Seat (literal meaning of Holy See, not a typo) which refers to the pope and the government of the roman church. (Or in simplified terms so kids can get it, The Vatican is the head of the church) So it is a religious entity, not a geographical one. The headquarters of the Holy See (The Vatican) is in Vatican City which is considered a country

I agree, Vatican City is the full name but in most cases, it would be - and should be included in this list as the shortened and more commonly used term is "The Vatican" or "Vatican". Vatican/Vatican City should be added to this list.

Using that logic, The United Kingdom should also be added to this list because there are people (many?) who refer to it as Great Britain, or just Britain. And, yes, I know that Great Britain is the name of the island and not the name of a/the country but that doesn't stop Great Britain or Britain from being commonly used to refer to the country. In fact, the ISO code for the United Kingdom is "GB".

I disagree, it doesnt matter what nicknames people have. Otherwise you could list the USA under "m" cause some people call it murica... But more importantly if you mean the country, it is vatican city. The term the vatican is indeed used, but it refers to the (sorry cant think of the right term in english) institution/establishment/entity not the country

it would be like saying congress or the white house is the same as usa, and white house should be an acceptable answer on country quizes..(I am sure there are better examples, but this one does the job). Vatican city is a country (city state) so it is a geographical term. The vatican is like the governing body of the roman catholic church, so nothing geographical, no country.

The vatican does not equal vatican city... one is a country the other is not and it has no bussiness being here.

Well...once you think of one, you are gonna do the others. I forgot afghanistan though... maybe because i knew it before knowing the other stans that it is not grouped with them in my head.

I was trying to think of what the last one I hadn't listed was for a solid minute, had the realization at 3s left, managed to get Spain (Yes, I forgot Spain existed, but in fairness, so do all our history textbooks when we talk about WWII) typed with less than a second left.

Yes, but many countries have an official long-form name, and an official short-form name. These quizzes generally go by the standard short-form names, if there is one, because no one wants to deal with people complaining about the "Countries Starting with 'B'" quiz including (The Bolivarian Republic of) Venezuela but excluding (The Kingdom of) Belgium.

All the stans end in 'n', mind blown. Not just one of them, all of them. This realization helped me so much.
