If you're interested in this period of history, Count Belisarius by Robert Graves is a good read.

UK should be included because of both Gibraltar and the territories on Cyprus.

Either you are bragging and exagerating or time have been changed. Cause i typed countries back to back without pause and am not a slow typer (on laptop anyway, tablet slows things down) and was tight in time.. Missed a few ( conviced I had allready typed croatia, but portugal had slipped my mind and malta and cyprus hadnt come up yet either) but not time to figure out which country I hadnt typed yet. (But atleast 4 of which I had tried werent on, so maybe if I had typed the right countries the time would ve been less tight)

Wasn't just thinking of my own score. Also about the total score of people. Right now the least guessed country is still 72%, not way low. Of course it depends on how hard they want the quiz to be.

I'm surprised that although both Austria and Switzerland are included, Liechtenstein isn't.

Hey @OskarRB. This one's going to have to wait. I don't want to reset the stats two days after the quiz was featured.

Are you sure Liechtenstein is in here ?
I don't know if you used other materials but in the map you linked, there is no way liechtenstein can be included (just look on a map how far north Liechtenstein is compared to Milan and how close to the border Mediolanum is on the map).
Even Switzerland could be considered a stretch because the map is probably an approximation of the real borders at that time and I don't think those parts of switzerland ever considered themselves to be part of the byzantine empire. Not to mention northern Italy stayed byzantine for less than 20 years.

^ Yeah I wasn't being serious - you'd already answered the question about Monaco above and Liechtenstein in the same post...

San Marino was already independent back then, it was just smaller than today, therefore it has to be included, but not 100%.

"smaller than today" - What is this? A country for ants?
