Equatorial Guinea has some very contradictory stats. The government says 1.6 million, but the World Bank and CIA Factbook say around 700,000. ThirdParty, do you want to weigh in?

The US State dept recognizes the existance of the census results, and suggests that they are inflated because of the upcoming elections. It seems that the lower estimates are well supported, at a first glance. http://www.state.gov/j/drl/rls/hrrpt/2002/18181.htm

I based it on Wikipedia's list. If you want to change it to one of the others, I have no objection.

I think the World Bank is probably correct. Changed it to Equatorial Guinea.

if you want it closer it should be estonia based on the wikipedia list, estonia as of 2014 has 1,315,819 and equatorial guinea as of 2013 has 1,430,000 but I agree it should be EAST TIMOR with a pop of 1,212,107 as of 2014

The only reason I could propose is that East Timor would probably come under "T" for Timor Leste.

How does Dominica become less guessed than Dominican Republic. I admit I would think of the former before the latter but you literally have to type Dominica to get DR.

How would you even know how often Dominican Republic is guessed? It's not on the quiz. What are you talking about?

Saw the picture. Foreground is Italy. Typed Italy. Later realized that the background is Vatican. And there is no way that Italy would be on this list. Need sleep, or something.
