You are.

I missed Iran because it didn’t load in for me,it was just a white flag.

No way, Monaco's flag is way more boring.

Not to mention Poland

Libya's was a stunning signal of nationality at sea when it was solid green like a starboard lantern board.

The tittle went to Libya until 2012...

True LMFAO.

I looked up Libya's old flag and was wondering why only the green of the images was loading......then I realised.

Yeah and now every time i see the new flag i cant identify it

Tittle, eh? 😏

Afghanistan has had a completely black flag... Twice. Also France apparently has had a plain white flag before.

Can you explain that Ivory Coast is not included because i nearly typed Ivory Coast for Ireland.

Probably it's counted under C, as it's often written as Côte d'Ivoire.

Eswatini is the colloquial name?

Really... it is côte d'ivoir in english, ivory coast is just the translation. You dont call costa rica rich coast do you..? It really should not be on this quiz. I get that you cant please everyone and someone is always gonna complain. But for that reason you might as wel do it the right way. (As for using the argument, people never use this name but they did with other countries.. i totally disagree, only on this site I ve seen some people prefering ivory coast so saying cote d'ivoire is not commonly in use is silly.

I mean we're not asking you to call if "The Republic of Côte d'Ivoire" we're just saying that they have officially requested to be called Cote d'Ivoire in ALL languages. not based off of the translations.

Objections! It begins with a C. Shouldn't be in this quiz.

why is it Federated State of Micronesia instead of Micronesia if too long official names aren't used?

Fun fact: the Ivory Coast was so named because it was colonized entirely by Irish people, whose bright, opalesque skin so contrasted with those of the people in neighboring countries that the region came to be known as the Nid d'Irlandais or Plage Laiteuse, and then later Côte d'Ivoire.

Sometimes I learn more from the comments than the actual quiz itself...

And the Gold Coast was colonised by jaundiced people, and the Slave Coast entirely by Slavic people. True facts.

Nice quiz, I'd suggest less time

Aw, let people have extra time. It's not like there's an advantage like 'guessing all the countries that start with I'. Some folks are taking the quiz on their mobile, or aren't fast typists. I'm a very fast typist taking the quiz on my laptop and it doesn't detract from my enjoyment in the slightest that I didn't need all the time.

I used to work next to a row of flags of all countries, in alphabetical order. I always liked to see the flags of Israel and Iran peacefully next to each other.

Nice idea but Iraq and Ireland would be a buffer in that situation.

True, but not in the Netherlands, where I live. Iraq and Ireland are written as 'Irak' and 'Ierland', so the sequence was Ierland-(...)-Irak-Iran-Israel.

Way to easy. Less time would make it a challenge.

Not as easy as saying "too" when you need to say "too" and not saying "to" in that context.

YTB! 8 seconds 100%

perhaps make a gray box with ivory coast in it? I saw the explanation for why ivory coast doesn't work, but it confused me until I read it and I thought it would be helpful to insert the gray box

It shouldnt be though..

Ivory Coast?

I agree it's weird, but apparently people in the comments above have been agitating for its inclusion for some time. Illegitimately so, in my opinion.

Apparently some us nickname has more value

Nickname? It's the name of the country... this isn't a French-language website.

It's not a french-language website (unless you're on french obviously), but that doesn't change the fact that its name in English is Côte d'Ivoire, not Ivory Coast as it used to be.

The Ivory Coast could march in any St. Patty's parade and no one would notice.

Technically Ivory Coast shouldn’t be in this quiz. It is supposed to be in C, and is supposed to be called Cote D Ivoire (I forgot where the ‘’s go)

It would be harder if you had only one chance to guess which one is Ireland and which Ivory Coast. ;)

I don't really consider it as Ivory Coast because on most places in jetpunk, it is mainly referred to as Cote D'ivoire. Took me a while but I got them all

I missed Ivory Coast bc I memorized it in school as Cote de Ivoire. :-(

Very nice quizz idea!

Cote d'ivorie

...is called the Ivory Coast in every single featured quiz on this site.

Tradition isn't always correct: The gov. of Cote d'Ivoire has requested formally to be referred to as Côte d'Ivoire in all languages, regardless of translations.

I'm not going to bother reading the discussion about the Ivory Coast / Côte d'Ivoire above, I'm going to wade in with my own opinion even though it's just repeating what's already been said.

Now, what was my opinion again?

Which is a shade of orange...

ez

not me typing monaco and then remembering what the quiz was about

7 seconds :)

I can understand the naming arguments for/against inclusion of Ivory coast (although a bit tiresome to see people repeat the same thing others have said as though nobody had ever remarked on the subject - there is a like button). What I don't understand is why it would prevent you from answering the question. You see a flag and say what country it's from and the country begins with I - if you know the answer, what's the problem unless you've never heard of the alternative /former name? Seems odd for geography quizzers who know their flags. It's not a 'name all countries beginning with I quiz'. Similarly, if it's omitted, how does it hinder you doing the quiz? Just name the ones you see!
