Honestly speaking, I've encountered very very few quizzes that deserve a feature more than this one. Nominated, and keep up the good work!
Texas. Yeah thats understandable
Vermont. Uh what now
California: Called themselves the Bear Republic, probably Russians
West Florida: ????
"The Colony of New South Wales was founded by 1788. According to the future Governor, Captain Arthur Phillip's amended Commission, dated 25 April 1787 the colony of New South Wales included "all the islands adjacent in the Pacific Ocean within the latitudes of 10°37'S and 43°39'S" which included most of New Zealand except for the southern half of the South Island."
Bahrain would take control of the peninsula then, albeit under pretty decentralized rule. In 1868, Qatar would start an independence war against Bahrain and remain under control of the peninsula in its own right until 1871. Only then did the Ottomans regain control of the area.
eg) Zaydi/Zaidi, Karnatak/Carnatac, ...
Also new dimensions of... unspellability (is that even a word?)
As for Bahrain, it actually technically predates Qatar. Local tribes from Qatar had conquered the island from Persia by 1783, establishing the Hakimate of Bahrain. The name Bahrain / al-Bahrayn was synonymous with the eastern coast of Arabia at the time. Qatar would break free from Bahraini rule by 1868.
