Shouldn't it be "used to be known by these five initials"?

Where do you think it is of, then? For now, we'll replace it with a picture of a church on the shore of Lake Ohrid, that is most definitely North Macedonian!

the adjective for North Macedonia is "Macedonian", and does not include North

I think "Vergina sun" should be accepted for the object depicted on the flag. Seems silly to punish those who know the full name of the iconography in question.

The Vergina Sun was replaced on the flag by a more generic sun in 1995.

This is quiz is insulting to all Greeks. Alexander the Great and his father Philip have nothing to do with this country. NOTHING. And the Vergina Star is also stolen from the correct Macedonian flag (the Greek one). Search in Google Greek Macedonian flag and you will understand what I mean.

I thought you'd be rather pleased that Alexander the Great conquered what is now North Macedonia. New Zealand has stolen the UK's Union Flag and put it into its own one, but the UK isn't bothered in the slightest.

im pretty sure macedonian uses the cyrillic alphabet, as opposed to being derived from it, i triedocs and like 50 spellings of phoenician because i thought it meant what the cyrillic alphabet came from which macedonian uses, maybe change the wording a bit.

The Macedonian alphabet was only standardised relatively recently - in 1945 - and omits several letters of the Russian Cyrillic alphabet like Я (ya) and Э (e), while introducing several letters of its own: Ѓ (pronounced gia), Ќ (kia), Ѕ (dz), Ј (y), Љ (lia), Њ (nia) and Џ (j).

hamptergoogledoc has a good point.

Both English and Italian, for example, are said to use the Latin alphabet but English has 26 letters and Italian only 21. We don't say that either is 'derived' from the Latin alphabet just that they both use the Latin alphabet although the varieties are somewhat different.

You can argue it either way. Wikipedia explains it thus: The orthography of the Macedonian language includes an alphabet consisting of 31 letters (Macedonian: Македонска азбука), which is an adaptation of the Cyrillic script, as well as language-specific conventions of spelling and punctuation.

What about "I'll show you" and "I love you more than anyone" ?

'Object depicted on the flag'. What flag?

maybe make the question more explicit? unless obscurity was the intention, of course.

80% are getting it right, and I hope you're one of them! If you didn't, then this should lead you to the answer.
