Country Chain Quiz #2

The answers are countries: The last letter of the first country is the first letter of the next one. (E.g. Fiji -> India -> Argentina)
THE ANSWER YOU TYPE IN MUST CORRESPOND TO YELLOW BOX. If you want to move it, click on other boxes or use the arrows.
Abbreviations (US, UK, UAE etc.) are accepted.
The full name of a country determines its last letter.
Therefore, you can type in just "UAE" but the next country will start with the letter "S" (because it's the United Arab Emirates).

What a wonderful set of clues - thanks for an interesting quiz! Heaps of time though, so when you got stuck near the end there was plenty of time to just guess - maybe 5 minutes or so would be a bit more of a challenge?

Is it only me, or is the screen glitched?

I genuinely don't think you could have picked worse clues for the UK. I got it from the letters, but practically no-one eats kippers, and then you've chosen two clues that are both obscure and not very guessable, based on their spellings.

Much better clues for Wales, not sure with the obsession over Medievel stuff that no-one here has heard of.

I wanted the clues to be more challenging - if I wrote "the capital is London, king Charles III, the Beatles" it would be too easy. There would be no point in making it a chain quiz in that case...
