Thanks - an enjoyable quiz. I would suggest that Reunion and Mayotte aren't countries, though you are quite correct to include them as they are part of Africa. Perhaps you should lump them together and call them "France"? But then, to be complete, you should also include all the other African overseas territories - Spain, Portugal, Yemen, UK and Italy.
