I finally learned them all. Can you name all 50?
There are 9 sovereign nations that start with the letter E. Try to name as many as you can! And no, England is not one of them.
Guess one country for each continent that starts with each letter until the map has been filled in green.
In one minute, can you match each set of highlighted countries with the letter they start with?

Agree. The instructions should be changed from "primarily located on . . . continent" to "Jetpunk standard continent" . . . or "majority of population primarily located on . . . continent". Russia is a European country which is primarily located in Asia.

I hate hate HATE the placement here. I never work in this order! Can this be rearranged to be in Common Map Order? (which is the Mercator projection, even though it has confused generations of Americans).

North America - South America - Europe - Africa - Asia - Oceania. I had to to this by the continents singularly to get through this quiz since the order is so bizarre.

I would have gone three times as fast if it went alphabetically down through each continent rather than going geographically through each letter. I sometimes do the Countries of the World by saying a country for A, for B, C, etc., to make it more challenging, so just listing an A, then B, then C for Europe would be a cinch, but having to stop and think of what continent I was on now, and mentally jump around, took forever. I guess that means it was a good challenge!

Got them all, but I was wondering for Timor-Leste and Côte d'Ivoire

Could you please add a caveat saying that for countries that have another language in official name the informal English name is considered? Or is that already included by saying the names are the ones in the quiz Countries of the World?
