What first sprang to mind in the "most black flag" category was ISIS.

The Eighth Schedule to the Constitution of India lists its 22 official languages.

Right, but those aren't really official. It seems that India defines whether or not languages are official based on whether the federal government uses it, so it doesn't matter what languages the states use.

Anyways, great quiz! I'm shocked that Iraq has such a high obesity rate (above any single Western European country it seems) despite being relatively poor.

Middle Eastern countries are a hotbed for obesity after Polynesia. I'm from Turkey and in the small villages the diet is so bad that "fast-food every day" feels like a healthier choice

I wondered about Malawi in the flag question, and looked it up. Apparently they had a different flag 2010-2012, and the current one is the same as before 2010. Huh, I never knew about it changing.

I think that there might be something wrong with the question about the most populated capital city starting with B. The capital of Argentina, La Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, has only 3 million inhabitants, way less than Baghdad. You may be referring to the population of the province Buenos Aires, but this is not the capital of the country.

No.

City proper of BA only has 3.1 million, true. But the metropolitan area as 15.1 million (or 15.6 million, depending on whether you're looking at Citypopulation.de or Wikipedia).

This is as opposed to the province with 17.5 million according to both of those sources - so they're not getting mixed up, but we're just looking at metro area rather than city proper.

This could be made more explicit in the quiz perhaps, yes, but city proper isn't IMO a great metric to use for comparing cities internationally like this, since different countries typically have very different ways of measuring where a city begins and ends. Baghdad for example doesn't have any useful notion of a city proper that is smaller than the metropolitan area - it's just divided into 9 District Advisory Councils, and 89 neighbourhoods.

Given that a flag quiz was updated because of Syria, should this be chaned as well?

I thought the Q question was asking population, not area. Eventually I figured it out though

Kyrgyzstan should be a correct answer to the flag change one, India should be a correct answer to the recognized languages, they have 23 and Iraq only has 2, which I don't understand why its there
