Good quiz. One small thing, I think the first question should say inland, not island.

To be more nitpicky, I think the Mediterranean is the largest inland sea... that's what the name means, and in English at least it was quite commonly known as "the inland sea" until quite recently (Churchill calls it that all the time in his account of the war).

To be fair I knew what you meant so perhaps it doesn't matter!

I tried Dardanelles and Bosphorus for the Turkey question, despite knowing neither of them are called seas. Couldn't pull the right answer out of my head. Nice quiz.

Slightly disappointed the Sea of Tranquility wasn't an answer

I'm no Christian, but don't they claim that Jesus walked on water, not through it?

Jesus marched on water. Moses split the sea (the red sea arm between Egypt and the Sinai) to march through it with the Hebrews that fled Egypt.

Different myth, around 1200 years apart.

When I typed in "Baltic" and "Japan" the quiz does not accept the answers. I tried it twice. It takes the other correct answers.

The Aral Sea didn't "evaporate." It was drained for irrigation by the Soviets.

They took the water upstream from the rivers that empty into the sea, not directly from the sea. This made evaporation no longer compensated with a flow of fresh water.

So it's still evaporation, which had always happened but is no longer compensated.
