DRC is not that difficult. Libya, Djibouti or Cabo Verde on the other hand... perhaps you may think or reshuffling the order of the Coats according to the answer stats. Seems, I am not alone with this feeling.

Why does the URL say coats of arms? Nice quiz by the way. Only missed Goryeo.

Because before I thought it was a good idea, but looking back it didn't look that great. So I decided to change it to its present state.

Thank you for taking the quiz :)

Can I please request some type-ins? Namely: Assyria, Mongol, and Sicily, which are typically accepted on JetPunk.

Nice quiz, but why did I get a notification for new quiz featured if this doesn’t award points? It’s deserving of a feature imo

Fun quiz! I was happy with getting some of the harder ones and didn't know any that i missed. It would be great if the countries were colored differently by layer so it was clear what layer the user was on.

It is a bit confusing though, I have done that and tested a preview, I was confused. I don't think it's that important to know the layers.

Thanks and have a great day :)

To be fair, it hasn't been used since the Second World War.

Why doesn't the Umayyad Caliphate include Iberia?

Otherwise, good quiz!

I don't know where I got that map from since it excluded Iberia and Cyprus yet it included Gujarat. All three of these issues have been fixed, along with making northern Africa's borders a bit better.

Thanks for informing me!
