Evil aliens have decided to kill everyone on Earth! Fortunately, they've given you two minutes to save as many as you can. All you have to do is name a country to save everyone in it.
Interesting, I also was questioning if those two were landlocked in my head. Then upon reading your comment thought surely Afghanistan is at least near the sea, looked at my map, turns out not. Learn something new everyday
Maybe you can change the second hint to larger than country #1 or make it something entirely independent? I was stuck for a while trying to think of a landlocked country that was larger than his northern neighbor.
You could remove the "landlocked" part of the rules and many of these questions would still have only one answer. Switzerland, Austria, Vatican City, Lesotho, South Sudan, North Macedonia, Zimbabwe, and Bhutan would still be the only answers to their questions, and I feel like it takes away from the point of the quiz.
Yes, I agree with this, although it's hard to avoid. Especially the Lesotho question, because it's completely impossible for a country completely surrounded by South Africa to not be landlocked.
One easy way around South Sudan is by using "Established after 2000", since this could also include East Timor if it weren't for the title.
Just a friendly heads-up regarding question 5: Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, San Marino, Andorra and Vatican City are all also landlocked countries with a population under 100million people, but these answers aren't accepted :)
Didn't the British, Americans and Soviets also invade Austria at the end of WW2 and have it under military occupation for 10 years? I think that also meets the criteria of the question.
I was able to complete all except the last one, where I just blindly spammed all the landlocked countries till I got Bhutan as answer with 7 seconds left 😌😂
More of a challenge than just naming landlocked countries

Bosnia: ?
Croatia: GET A PASSPORT TO GO TO THE BEACH, NOW!
Bosnia: …Croatia, you do this every time. Even at the line to the water filter, you do this!
Croatia: Hush or you don’t get a passport.
