I guess all the famous lakes of China are seasonal? Poyang, Dongting and Taihu are the ones I knew.

Bangweulu is completely incorrect. According to this quiz, it is almost 3x the size of Lake Rukwa, which if you look at a map, Rukwa is at least 3x bigger than Bangweulu. You even put "no seasonal lakes" in the cavaet.

You should add Alaqol aas an acceptable answer for Alakol since that is the spelling on Google Maps
