It's a good concept, but I think it's been done before. To improve it, maybe you could organize the answers in alphabetical order, but that's just my opinion to make it a little bit easier... Perhaps.

Dominican Republic didnt show up for me. ..and there's way way too little time for this. Doubling it wouldnt be too much.

accepting DRC or DR Congo would be helpful, just to keep this in line with most other geo-quizzes...

maybe one more minute onto the time limit and allow DRC as with most sporcle quizzes, but otherwise quite good

Missing The Gambia, I'd also like another minute, for a quiz as big as this there's no think time, I was constantly typing out 31 countries for the full four minutes and didn't have any time to think of the last four, quizzes about typing speed suck.

Need to allow DRC for Democratic Republic of the Congo. Also, agreeing with canuckster, The Gambia is the commonly used name for Gambia. But, this is a great quiz. Nice idea.

I would make The Gambia a bonus answer. Even Sporcle doesn't count articles.

What about "The Netherlands?" Nobody would ever say, "I'm going to Netherlands." The article seems necessary, especially if The Gambia counts. Just my opinion!

Yes but there is an important difference... if I were to say I'm going to the Netherlands, I use "the" because Netherlands is plural. If I were to say, I'm going to The Gambia, "The" is capitalized because it's part of the proper name.

Netherlands is now a bonus. There is another bonus as well, if you can find it, that I added because it seems to be referred to by its proper name as much as the US is. And if I'm wrong, well, it's just a bonus.

If you put 'the netherlands' you need to think about 'the philippines', 'the maldives' etc.
