Fun quiz, I scored 22/65. The quiz would not accept Okeechobee for me. Thanks for the quiz!

Agree it doesn’t accept Okeechobee.

Also, the clue “with namesake of world capital on it” is somewhat confusing. Perhaps “named after the world capital on its shores” would be clearer. Otherwise great quiz, thanks.
