I believe for "S", it should be "one of the EU Capitals", not "one of Europe's capitals". Strasbourg is not the capital of any European country.

Nice quiz, I have a few suggestions:

there is an empty answer called (various). The "I" clue should be more specific, because there are other answers that fit, such as Ivry-sur-Seine. Finally, I wouldn't say Bordeaux is 'on' the Atlantic.

I really enjoyed this - thank you! The W clue is pretty vague though, I thought of Wasquehal, which seems to be just as good an answer as Wattrelos - and arguably even Woippy, even if that is closer to Luxembourg than Belgium. Maybe if you put "on" the Belgian border?

Good quiz, however I would personally update it to make it look on par with other text quizzes. This includes fixing the text sizes, adding a thumbnail, making it so the right edge doesn't reach the very end, and possibly rewording some of the clues.
