I used to live in Kazakhstan, almost eight years ago now. Managed a pathetic 18/32, although I did write the republic of kazakhstan so it didnt get accepted.

Thanks for taking the quiz. I just redid it and made it - hopefully - a bit easier. I accepted loads of new typos and stuff so this shouldn't cause so much trouble anymore (I finally learned how simple your life can be when you learn basic coding abbreviations :D).
