I'm guessing some people would like to know the logic behind the answers, so here's every answer in order with the logic and squares needed to figure them out:

Amazing quiz, must have taken a lot of hard work. It would be nice to see a source on the population as some countries can be close. Also where is the Mediterranean Sea defined. As far as I can see both Morocco and Tunisia fits in B6. Please explain if I'm wrong but I can't see how one can be deduced. Finally, you might want to add more time. 20 minutes is not a lot of time. I had to untime it which is a shame. Maybe 60 or 120 minutes so one can spend some time working out the logic. Great quiz though, a nomination from here :-)

Thank you, much appreciated!

The source for the population is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_and_dependencies_by_population

Morocco can be eliminated from B6 with D4. Morocco has a green star on its flag, and therefore doesn't fit in column B :)

I will increase the quiz time so it doesn't have to be solved in such a hurry.

Did all the quiz in 29:22. It was pretty hard. May I ask you about adding the shorter type-ins for countries such as North Korea(DPRK) and New Zealand(NZ)?

Very very interesting quiz. Thanks for making, the Word document with the order was helpful sometimes. Main challenges for me:

- Finding out what hint belongs to what box and the other way around. Some visual reference might be useful, but I have no idea how to do that while still making it look uncluttered.

- Personally I'm not a fan of the abundance of flag-related hints.

Really, really fun. I got all but one, and absolutely broke the "no guessing" rule towards the end.

I will nominate; I would recommend making a less challenging version to make this great idea more accessible.

Also broke the "no guessing" rule myself. A few places I got stuck but had one box narrowed down to 2 or 3 options and just took a guess :)

Interesting! It might be good to specify in the instructions that numbers are exact ("four countries" means exactly four countries, not at least four countries).

I don't see how B3 gives you D2 (from the doc you shared)...there's nothing to indicate continent yet, is there?

A1: Each row represents a different continent. And since Oceania only has one country with 10M+ population, B3 gives you D2 = Australia.

loved this! is this made by using "text quiz" or using the path/ID stuff? or did you have to create a table in some other tool and then bring it here by SVG?

Honestly, I have no idea how to make such things myself so I copied a featured quiz with a grid layout and tweaked that to fit my quiz.

Any quiz with a grid for answers should work. I think I used a multiplication table quiz, and just modified it to suit my needs.

It’s a shame population figures is one of the few fields of country-based geography that doesn’t interest me, because this seems like a potentially-very-fun quiz. Unfortunately, I can only do the very first question before hitting the aforementioned roadblock. 😔

This is a fantastic quiz. Couldn't for the life of me get the last Asian country, won't say which one, but it was very enjoyable.

This was hard for me as I count Cyprus as Europe. I guess JetPunk thinks otherwise? Otherwise very fun.

Yeah, while Cyprus is culturally and politically European, it's geographically considered a part of Asia and as this is mainly a geography quiz site, Jetpunk considers it an Asian country.

How did more people get E4 than D1? I thought it went A1, B3, D1 (then I got stuck).
