nice quiz, though the "only rainforest in continental Europe" is pretty contentious https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperate_rainforest

If the question says "name the league", is it really necessary to type "league" as part of the answer?

"Hanseatic" should be MORE than sufficient. There's no way that "league" should be necessary.

Nice and challenging quiz. I think you could add more type-ins for Tyrrhenian Sea and accept Pict in the singular.

Thanks changed them both - Tyrrhenian I have put as 'AUTO' in the hopes that it will give more type-in options
