Jamaica is closer than Jordan to the Equator

Fun quiz!

I agree. I couldn't understand how, if Jamaica is closest to the South Pole, it isn't also closest to the Equator. I know that will spoil the quiz, though!

Exactly. Thes second set of answers should be the same as the first.

Isn’t North Macedonia closer to Ukraine than Norway? Not to mention Netherlands?

This quiz predates North Macedonia. I don't have the data to update it.

That is.... really easy to get, but okay. Kyiv to Skopje is 1173 km, Skopje to Pristina is 78 km.

If the distances are between capitals.. are those the distances being used to determine which country is closest to the next country? If not, you should really specify that you're apparently not considering overseas territories, and regardless you should really specify that the distances are in km.

Please use the "Auto" type-ins (for United States, for example). The J for Equator category is still incorrect, it might work to replace it with the Prime Meridian. North Macedonia should also be on here.

Needs correcting and updating.
