Fun, I hope you make more! It was interesting when you went into other geography, it definitely made things harder. (Although the title does say country.)

Thanks! I’m definitely open to changing the quiz name to be more accurate and/or more fun. I am having trouble coming up with something catchy though…

#1 The question is very dubiously phrased regarding to the answers.

"Half a Russia" does not equal "2 Brazils", since Russia is ~16M km² and Brazil is ~8M km².

> You need to choose between :

- Half a Russia equals about 1 Brazil

- Russia equals about 2 Brazils

#15 The answer is straight up false.

Vatican is .49 km², if you multiply by 1 million you get 490,000km², and the closest approximant among your answers is Turkmenistan with 488,100km². Liechtenstein and its 160km² lags far behind.

#10 The formulation makes no sense on Jetpunk.

Usually the external territories are excluded, and Denmark counts without Greenland. You should add a caveat in the intro as well to precise this.

In fact you are basically asking for a country the same size as Denmark (42,947km²). But Togo (56,785km²), which is over 25% larger, is a very debatable choice as a valid answer.
