There's a bug in this quiz: there are 24 answers instead of 23; the 24th is "Afghanistan", even if that makes no sense, plus there is no space to write it down!

It's the capital distance.... Almost confused me with Romania and Serbia, it was weird that bordering countries are 450km from each other..

I enjoyed doing the quiz and I had to go 'untimed' as I was going to run out of time, could not finish it and found out that my stumbling block was 'Macedonia' I had tried 'North Macedonia' for the 'N' clue, so could not think of a country in that position beginning with 'N'.
