Can you change all type-ins to Auto and perhaps stick with official JetPunk countries?

Thanks for the suggestion! I made this quiz years ago, and either the auto setting didn't exist back then or I just didn't know how to do the type-ins right. I've updated them all now. As for the second suggestion, I have changed the caveat from "disputed regions" to "states with limited recognition," which should hopefully be clearer. I don't intend to remove those answers from the quiz, however.
