I gave up on this quiz early I’m afraid.

Too many spelling mistakes and other errors (eg Brunei in the quiz twice)

You have a spelling mistake in Mountain in Black Mountain and Lion Mountain. You've written it as Mountin.

So many issues. Black mountain. Where the river narrows. Quebec isn't a country, but Canada is, and its name means "The village". Saviour. East Timor is East Timor in English; you meant for the hint to be Timor Leste. I typed "Indus River"; "land of the" should be optional for all answers. Flaming waters/toungues of fire. Lion mountain. Micronesia is an island chain, along with Polynesia and Macronesia; the country is called the Federated States of Micronesia on this site.

.. and where did "fire and ice" come from? Iceland literally means 'country of ice' - in both English and Icelandic.

So, you fixed the spelling of mountain, but not "tongues", "where", having Timor Leste as the English version of East Timor instead of vice versa, the fact that Quebec isn't a country, and the fact that "fire and ice" is a nickname (based on the presence of volcanoes), but has no role in the naming of Iceland. Are you going to get around to those issues?

Named as such because Flóki Vilgerðarson, according to legend, saw icebergs in a fjord. I believe that 'Land of Fire and Ice' is a sort of nickname for the island, however.

Also, for some reason “House of Stone” is an accepted type-in for Barbados.
