I can't beat 188. If the map was there, I think I could do it but I lose track of what I've skipped and precious seconds tick away.

The problem with it is that you can select the 'Take Untimed' feature and it just becomes the normal 'Countries of the World' quiz.

Why would you select untimed when the whole point is taking it in 5 minutes?

Answer updated to "Czechia". Once the Democratic People's Republic of Korea shows any sign of being democratic, or of the people, we'll consider DPRK. At least it's a republic, in the narrowest sense of the word.

I think keeping to conversational names - ie the names almost always used in conversation - is best. No-one says "I'm visiting Republic of Korea" and they don't say they're visiting ROK either. Virtually everyone would say they're visiting South Korea.

I don't know if they were then but now ROK and DPRK are JetPunk standards, as well as ROC for Taiwan.

You know it's going to be a bad run when you start: Canada, United States, Guatemala... I definitely should never be a stenographer. Regardless of my inability, I love all these speed typing quizzes of yours!
