I really enjoy this type of quizzes. It makes you think about the countries in a lot of the different ways in very short time. :)

Neat quiz. It sure is a shame it’s not featured.

How come this and #7 aren't in the "Name a Valid Country" series? One of my favourite quiz-types on the site :)

BTW 20 grams of fish isn't much for a whole country...

Level 75

Jun 9, 2021

It is because the Name a Valid Country series is technically Quizmaster's, not ours, so we do not have the power to add 6 & 7

I completed this quiz and when I went to go to the next one, I was brought back to this one. Do you have any idea as to why I cannot play the “Name a valid country #8” quiz?

Japan's already hosted their Olympics, can you remove it as an answer?

Level 77

should probably say 20 grams of fish a day per person, rather than 20 grams total

Doesn't Bhutan not recognize a LOT of countries?

Level 71

May 11, 2022

I don't think they officially recognize PRC or RC.

Level 62

Jul 22, 2022

Common misconception. Recognition is not the same as no diplomatic relations. They recognise everyone but keep diplomatic relations with only handful of countries.

Level 54

May 16, 2022

what country doesn't recognize China?

Level 77

May 16, 2022

Many countries recognize Taiwan and not China.

Level 83

May 17, 2022

They don't have diplomatic relations, or maybe don't bother to officially recognize them.

Level 52

Oct 17, 2023

You recognize either China or Taiwan. Simple.

Level 62

Jul 22, 2022

The ones that recognise Taiwan don't recognize China

The last one really stumped me, although in retrospect I should've been able to guess Iraq for that XD

Has the United States not been visited at least thirty times by U.S. presidents? (I get why it's not included, but might be good to include a disclaimer.)

Level 82

May 16, 2022

I don't think, definitionally, it counts as visiting if it's the country you live in. I can't visit my own house. And sure, a President based in Washington D.C. can visit Seattle, but you wouldn't say they are visiting the US when they do that.

No, it's Banjul. Do some research.

Level 76

Australia should be a valid answer for the Melanesia one, because the Torres Strait Islands are Melanesian

Great quiz. The equator question is a bit iffy. Some of the countries listed are definitely crossed by the equator, albeit not through land.

Agreed. It's often national territory, by every relevant definition.

Cyprus isn't recognized by all countries of the UN? First I've heard of it as a Cypriot person, think you meant the Republic of Northern Cyprus which is not recognized by any nation other than Turkey. Please update this.

Level 55

Jul 19, 2022

According to Wikipedia, Cyprus is not recognised by Turkey.

Actually, Germany was also visited at least 30 times by US President, since pre 1990 Federal Republic of Germany and present day Germany are the same country (via Wikipedia).

I find it weird how there are 2 cities named "Hyderabad"!

Level 78

Sep 13, 2024

The city is named after Caliph Ali Ibn Abi Talib who is a major figure in Islam. For comparison, there are 13 cities in the region named Muhammad (6 in Iraq alone). The name Hyderabad roughly translates into The Lion's (Haydar's) City (abad) in reference to Ali's prowess in battle.

Turkey is in Europe and has a major muslim population right? Why's that not a correct answer

Level 64

Because Turkey is not in Europe, it's in West Asia
