Sad sad quiz... Life expectancies in most southern african countries are now so much lower than they have been; it was 55 years in Swaziland only twenty years ago.

you messed up the order - 80.65 should be below 80.73

@thesurrealbunny, Botswana has government-sponsored aid for people with HIV, helping keep the life-expectancy up.

I like the idea of the quiz, but some of your numbers and your linked source are very far apart from each other. Swaziland (31.88 vs. 47.85), Malawi (43.82 vs. 50.03), and Djibouti (43.37 vs. 60.32) are three of the most egregious examples.
