I think you meant to put the question about the Tyrrhenian sea somewhere else, where it is right now it's not sure what "that island" is supposed to be (not that it really matters in this case, but still). Nice quiz!

Good quiz. Please accept courgette for the squash as that's what it's called on the Italian side of the Atlantic.
