How is this not fixed? I know Lebanon's flag very well, but I'm not a flag expert so assumed there must be a correct answer. Didn't even try a known wrong one.

With that kind of clue, always try Nordic countries. Then Estonia. (and then the Netherlands and Germany)

Saint Lucia is not the only country named after a woman. Ireland's name derives from Ériu, an ancient goddess. So maybe cut the word "only" in the hint :)

The Lillie Langtry pub in London is also named for a woman. Seeing as it is not a country, though, it does not appear on this quiz.

For the ‘two namesake islands’ question I tried Trinidad and Tobago, st Vincent and the grenadines and Antigua and barbuda. Honestly had no clue that st kitts had the same thing going on, I guess it’s a Caribbean trend

The Grenadines are an archipelago, quite odd how you thought of that.

Is it actually "quite odd"? It's not the correct answer, but the logic seems a pretty straight line to me.

I actually found the first question the hardest to get, but that probably just goes to show that my head is filled with rubbish about purple parrots and that I have no common sense.
