OMG it drives me nuts when I type the right answer and it doesn't work, and then I take the quiz again and it does.

"How is the answer not a Berliner?"

I was right! Why doesn't it work?

"Oh, now it @&#!ing works. Why didn't it work before?!"

Hey, I think you've mixed up Libya and Lebanon, because Tripolis is in Libya (Africa) and not Lebanon (Asia). Hope I'm not wrong and it was intended by you :)

In this case, Tripoli is also a city in Lebanon, which is what the question is referring to.
