I also do colors as last names. Black, White, Green, Brown. Works a surprising amount of the time.

The river was the only one I missed...would have been my first 100% on a quiz about a country to which I don't have a strong personal connection.

My wife is from Carrasco - half of her childhood friends are called Gargiulo, Sanguinetti, Perotti, Borgia, etc... That was the most obvious one to me^^

i tried translating the motto but misspelled it as libertad o muerde’, and the meaning of that is oddly appropriate for a quiz with a question about that footballer.

I misspelled it too. Think I typed muerto. I went back later and tried the word in english and that worked.

Not with you on that one. The 'a' is too far from all the other letters, which just throws my rhythm.

I've just noticed that 'uruguy' is a type-in, I still prefer it with the 'a' though!

Feel a bit of a schmuck having somehow got 16 out of 16, as I really don't know anything about Uruguay.

I typed pampas as pampa, didn't see the Suarez question (I am a football fan) and tried sheep and goats on the cow one. I wanna cry
