Nice as usual! Can we have answers sorted alphabetically so we get a hint on the ones we are missing? Also, I think Bengaluru can have Bangalore as a type-in

Got stuck on the second city in Nepal--a country I think about so little that John Oliver will try to convince me it's actually Georgia.

Beautiful semi-tropical lakeside town in the Annapurnas. (A chain of the Himalayas.) Do a google image search and you'll want to go there. It's a major tourist destination -- internationally, domestically and regionally.

There's 21 answers and you missed 5 meaning you're right it's not half bad it's a bit less than a quarter bad which overall is pretty good.

It is sometimes considered part of South Asia because of cultural reasons, as well as shared heritage with Bhutan and Nepal. But the great thing about defining regions like South Asia is that there is a great level of subjectivity! :)

It's probably better classified as East Asian but there is a lot of cultural overlap with Nepal and Bhutan.

I can add this quiz to a playlist. Interesting. Is this a new feature and it's been applied to only a few quizzes so far as a test?
