It's fun but extremely difficult! It took me a long time to find a hint that only applies to one country only.

Japan and Nepal can be switched (both neither Christian or Muslim, both never colonized by Europe).

Same holds for Egypt and Syria (both Roman provinces and bordering Libya and Lebanon resp.)

Some of these have more than one correct answer e.g. Australia and Egypt both have capitals that begin with C - how on earth are we supposed to know which one you've picked??

Should include hints that truly have just one possible answer
