Great quiz! I couldn't get the 2 congos despite (I think) trying to type Congo, DRC and the full names.

How do you get this data, do you measure it all 'by hand'?

Yeah, I do. It doesn't take that long, I use this website: http://www.freemaptools.com/radius-around-point.htm to work it out quickly, but it does mean that everything's just approximate.

OK thanks! In case you're interested Jerry928 uses daftlogic.com (click on 'distance calculator') which I think can be used to get more accurate data

I read Vienna instead of Venice. Couldn't figure why Slovakia and Czech Republic didn't work.
