"swaziland" was renamed as "eswatini" in 2018. This should probably be corrected and both answers should be accepted. Great quiz though, I enjoyed spending time on it

It should be possible do just write "Denmark" instead of "Denmark excluding Greenland"

Also had this problem. Kind of a stupid answer. Heavily frustrated me trying to get this.

Sorry about that. Don't know how that happened. It used to be fine. I did resubmit the quiz to recognise all usual type-ins after updating something unrelated. "excluding Greenland" was added somehow.???? The only place I put that was in the notes for clarity.

I have now fixed and tested and Denmark works fine.

It would be great if this quiz was 60 minutes because there are so many possibilities that it takes a very long time to find the right slot. Thanks!
