	Very interesting, but I'm pretty sure that 'United Kingdom' in English is 'United Kingdom' and not 'Britain.' Can't verify the others, I only got the ones whose name is the same in English plus a couple of the more well known ones!

	So Britain is English for the United Kingdom? Odd, I thought it was in English already...

	España needs the tilde (at least as an option), just as Österreich needs the umlaut, and the alternative spelling Oesterreich. The same probably goes for some others (Hungary, for example). There also need to be a lot of alternative answers accepted for countries whose alphabets are Cyrillic, since these don't transfer to the Latin alphabet directly.

	People in the United Kingdom call the United Kingdom "The United Kingdom" Britain is NOT the United Kingdom. Britain only includes Scotland, England and Wales

	I chose Britain because you already have United Kingdom in the English Name column, I don't know what to do. As to the tildes, I said in the description that special characters have been replaced at first I had Հայաստան instead of Georgia, and I thought it's not ok so I've changed them all with the letters from the English alphabet.

	Österreich (with dots) should be allowed for Austria.

	@techwork: That's Great Britain. Britain is generally accepted as an alternate/less formal term for the UK. Some people disagree, but it's considered acceptable for official government usage, on the BBC, etc.

	'Беларусь' is also transliterated 'Bielarus' and 'Belarus'. Also, 'Ellas/Ἑλλάς' is the ancient Greek name: modern Greece is 'Ellada/Ελλάδα'.

	Bosnia and Herzegovina should be Bosna i Hercegovina, not just "Bosna" because it is missing the other part of the name.

	At 73% Suomi/Finland is more known than UK at 71%, talk about weird. Anyways, you should accept Česká republika too, I mean without the accents and all.. good quiz! never heard of the Vatican one btw

	I've no idea how I knew about leztebuerg yet managed to miss portugal...

	Belgium should be België-Belgique-Belgien (Dutch, French, German). And I'm pretty sure Italian is an official language in Switzerland too.

	I know, there are many situations like this one, I have chosen the most important languages.

	There's one mistake. Cyprus in Turkish is "Kıbrıs", without dots over both letters i. "Santa Sede" means "Holy See" but not Vatican City, which I guess must be "Vaticani Civitas" or "Vaticana Civitas" in Latin.

	I would say that the closest transliteration of "България" would be "Bălgariya" or "Balgariya", but not "Bulgaria". The same for the Czech Republic, I would say "Česká Republika" as the common name, and not just "Česko". Finally, for "Беларусь", "Byelarus' " or "Belarus' " (note the equivalence ь=' ) would be the closest. Just my advices anyway. I enjoyed a lot this quiz!
