Fine quiz, but don't you have the clue and answer for Burma and Myanmar backward? I mean, you could say it goes either way. Myanmar was the name of the country before European imperialists decided it should be Burma.. and then recently the country gained independence and decided to go back to using the name Myanmar, even though QM prefers the colonial name. So it has gone back and forth.

I like the quiz. However, Western Sahara is disputed territory and not a recognized state. Its still considered to be part of Morocco by most of the international community.

It's a neat quiz, but Hellenic Republic is still the official name of Greece, and states such as Korea and the USSR should accept other countries than just the one.

I agree. Also, Myanmar is the modern name, not Burma. I got the question correct, but there is still a mistake nonetheless.
