cool quiz! Can see it being published. But.. shouldn't 'Republic of Ireland' be on it?

@escapehere: If that were included, than so would every country with the word "Republic" in its official name.

Basically too many answers are needed, makes the quiz less fun than the more exotic letters.

@escapehere: no it shouldn't, since the official (English) name of that country is "Ireland"; the "Republic of" bit is only added to make it clear that it's the country which is being referred to rather than the whole island of Ireland (which would also include part of the UK). Good quiz, although I think it would be better with the answers in random order - alphabetical makes it a bit too easy.

probably one of the only quizzes on sporcle that doesnt accept "rep of the congo" as an answer. i also think you should include "burma" as a bonus

You mean, like "Federal Republic of Germany"? "Peoples' Republic of North Korea"? Or any other Republic? No, let's stay shorthand please - the ones with "Republic" here have a reason that they include it (distinguishability, if that's a word).

Wow, 7 out of the 12 countries in South America have a 'u' in them. Definitely a good place to start :)

I hate when I make the rookie mistake of moving on from a continent without actually thinking about all the countries. "Ecuador, Venezuela, Suriname, and Guyana". Well that's enough there... Um, Uruguay STARTS WITH U, not to mention Peru and Paraguay have u! Ack!

You have include the Republic of Ireland. Ireland describes the island land mass that includes both the Republic and Northern Ireland. Therefore, only Republic of Irleland is an accurate labelling of the country which most know as 'Ireland'.

More stressful than usual, thanks to persistent internet issues at work that caused freezes three times during the game. And I'm come back and remember new countries but not ones I'd already done the first time. Argh! Finally got all 60!

I always thought French-Guiana was a country, too. As well as Aruba and Curacao. Still a great puzzle and puzzler.

@GeoMonster: ?!...Ecuador, Guyana, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, Uruguay, Venezuela = 7. That's 12% of the answers, but 58% of the continent.

Notes to self - 1 - learn how to spell all the countries, 2 - learn how to type! I wonder what my overall typing speed is when you factor in all the backspaces?

I, too, got messed up by the alphabetization of the 2 Congos. Great quiz, though.
