Suggestion: since all the answers end in "stan" anyway, how about just accepting whatever comes before that as an answer. "Tajiki", "Kyrgyz", etc. Then you could lower the time a little bit as well.

For me it was realizing, Azerbaijan isnt one of them... I allways say them in the same go (minus pakistan). I looked up my bix was full, first thought the quiz screwed up haha. Then I realised while deleting the box and saw Azerbaijan. Then I restarted the quiz, guess what I tried again...

7/7 with 1:33 remaining at 9:45:50 PM on March 23, 2019. I can't believe that I did not remember to take this quiz in the past. I guess I wasn't as well versed in the countries of the world back when I started on JetPunk. Well, I've got them all now, anyways. 1087 points.

Good quiz, but I agree with others that the time limit is too generous, especially if you're a "Countries of the World" quiz aficionado. I'm a horrendously slow typist, but even I had 1:21 remaining.

Let me give you some information. "stan" means "land" in Persian language. For example, we (Turkish people) call Bulgaria "Bulgaristan", Serbia "Sırbistan", Georgia "Gürcistan", Saudi Arabia "Suudi Arabistan", Croatia "Hırvatistan", Hungary "Macaristan", Mongolia "Moğolistan", India "Hindistan" etc.

Turkmenistan,Kazakhstan,Kyrgyzstan,Tajikistan and also Uzbekistan and as well Pakistan and Afghanistan.

If you remove the suffix STAN,you'll get their languages.

Like this:Turkmen,Kazakh,Kyrgyz,Tajik,Uzbek,

Paki and Afghan are not languages but they're people's land.
