Ummm... In which country does the Sultan of Oman reside? Which country has the most native Japanese speakers? Um, aren't those a bit intuitive...

Yes, the Japanese one is early so is supposed to be super easy. The Sultan of Oman used to live in Zanzibar, Tanzania (as in the following question) so that question was meant to confuse and trick some people.

Great job with this one! I got stuck with the island that the Sultan resided on.

I think the 10th question ('Which country receives ...') should say tourists.

It’s not wrong to put Kansas for “Which city is Kansas City in?” as there is a Kansas City, Kansas with over 150,000 people.

Nice quiz, but the Kansas City question is inaccurate as there is a Kansas City in Kansas, as well as the one in Missouri.
