Crna Gora is the name of Montenegro in their official language. Wales is not a country, it is a part of the larger United Kingdom. It should be the Democratic Republic of the Congo as not to confuse it with the other Congo. Make sure to accept basic type-ins if you havent already. Once you make changes you'll have to resubmit.

Thanks! I changed out those 2 and put in D.R. Congo. I had already accepted suggested type-ins.

Nice idea for a quiz but of course, there's room for improvement. Wales is technically not a country.

Crna Gora is definitely Montenegro, not Macedonia.

Thanks! I removed it, the name is probably only known by people who have been/lived there.
