Could one not argue that "Somalia" is a valid answer to question 3 as well as question 1?

CardinalSin is right - Somalia *has* been in a state of civil war since 2011, as well as since all the years from 1991. But I think the implication that the civil war started in 2011 is sufficiently clear for Somalia not to be allowed.

Seems an odd decision to stop at 17 questions?

Of course, there's no real reason to go to 20 rather than 17 other than convention, just seems unusual

Slovakia did not split from Czechia tho, as both countries just split from Czechoslovakia. There is no succesor state, both countries are on the same level.

A not quiz-specific question / suggestion: is it possible to unify the personal best time indication which one sees before taking the quiz and the one shown after completing it?

The first one shows how much time the person needed and the latter shows remaining time.

For example, for the current quiz it says for me: "Your fastest time is 3:37" and "Your best time is 2:19 remaining". Since I didn't pay attention to the timer in the beginning, I don't know if my current time is better than the previous try or not. For me it's more confusing than helpful.

This is a level of pedantry I don't think I've seen on Jetpunk before.

I disagree. JackintheBox was correct in pointing out a punctuation error. A minor detail, to be certain. But pedantry is not merely concern with minor details or rules, but excessive concern with minor details and rules. I don't find the request to be excessive in any way. Accuracy, precision and correctness matter. If I made a quiz that had a misplaced comma in it, I'd want someone to point it out to me.

The hint of 30% nomadic stumped me, I thought of Mauritania, Nigeria, Somalia, etc, etc. Just couldn't get the correct answer

You could also add to make it 20 and not 17: Lithuania, Latvia, Saudi arabia, Namibia, Austria, Armenia and Georgia.

The Albania question kinda stumped me, at first I thought Tunisia, but it doesn't border the Adriatic. Then maybe Croatia, but it isn't really close the Italy's "heel", then Albania hit me

Nice quiz overall

Source for the 30% nomadic or semi-nomadic figure?

I'm guessing the figure is sourced from the 3rd paragraph of the introductory section of the country's Wikipedia article. However, that part of the article is not itself backed up by a footnote, so it's hard to say where it ultimately comes from.

not really a civil war anymore. It's against Israel now considering they're invading. Most militant groups are satisfied with the rebels takeover
