Good questions overall but I felt that the 'mate' on the Australian question was a bit cringeworthy.

Easy - many of these are countries with similar-ish names, but rarely confused with each other.

I think they meant also including the Atlantic Ocean. It’s not like Lesotho, which is completely land locked by South Africa.

The best are those quizes where you have to name like 100 biggest cities in New Zealand or some U.S. state and you can see all answers have been guessed by over 10% of the players. Either it was a lot of the locals taking the quiz or a lot of the cheaters. ;)

Great quiz! Well-chosen pairs and distinguishing features. It's easy if you have some familiarity with the countries of the world, of course, as most regular Jetpunkers do; but these are in fact often confused by non-geography-enthusiasts, and there is space for quizzes of different difficulties here.

I might add Sweden and Switzerland.

I'm surprised that the Tigris/Euphrates question is the most missed. Those two are notorious, c'mon. Mesopotamia, anyone?

Another quiz might be Orders of Magnitude harder, but would it be as fun? Who's to say

Gambia isn’t a country; it’s “The Gambia” 🇬🇲. It has the word “the” in its name to reduce confusion with the country Zambia 🇿🇲!
