Countries, US States and Capitals on the World Map by 3 Common Letters

Type any 3 consecutive letters of a country/state/capital to make it appear provided they are also 3 consecutive letters of at least one other country/state/capital!

Type any number to highlight answers that don't share any 3 consecutive letters with other ones!

EXAMPLES:
- you can only get SUCRE by typing CRE as that appears in 'democratiC REpublic of the congo', SUC and UCR don't appear in any other answer;
- you can only get reykjAVI by typing AVI because that appears in brazzAVIlle.
In order not to overlap US States, 'United States' only highlights Puerto Rico

"The first charcater you type will highlight answers that don't share any 3 consecutive letters with other ones". Didn't happen to me! I can't answer "Egypt" for example, cause egy gyp and ypt don't work (correctly). Good quiz, I'll nominate!

Same here. I got stuck with Egypt, Texas, Iowa, Kiev, Lima, Tokyo Seoul, and a few others because none of the 3-letter combinations in any of those worked. Is there some strategy I missed?

I tried the quiz again with the answer key pulled up in another window. Even then, I could only get 480. I tried every possible 3-letter run in each of the following 15 answers, but none of them would work: Baku, Doha, Egypt, Iowa, Israel, Kiev, Laos, Lima, Majuro, Quito, Riyadh, Seoul, Skopje, Texas, Tokyo

What am I missing?

It says 'type any *number* to highlight the answers that dont have any in common'. So just type a number (like 3 or something)
