All credit goes to Chase (http://www.sporcle.com/games/Chase/Most_Viewed_Country_Wikipedia_Pages) for the layout of the quiz, which was unscrupulously stolen by me. >.> Since there was no room for numbers, the politicians/leaders are placed in descending order.

Very interesting. I had to consult wikipedia to find out who a few of the right-hand people are (apparently it's Gugino instead of Cugino). Since you accept John Paul without title, could you also accept Benedict XVI?

You should add a little more time, as well as include what these people where the Monarch/President etc of.

Kim Jong-Il must be infuriated. Sure, he could understand if it were Angelina Jolie or Will Smith were more popular, but Bruce Willis? That's a huge blow to the ego. And Napoleon and Jenna Jameson - the best power couple that never was.

Good quiz. I think Roosevelt should be accepted for both Roosevelts not just Theodore. Also accept Mao and Kim.

Why when i put in Roosevelt do you give theodore but not FD and when i put in Elizabeth you give 'I' but not 'II'. There were other examples, but you should either give both answers or require the full details. As it stood i didn't even realise Elizabeth II was even an answer after being allowed elizabeth...

Why do (American) netizens love looking up past presidents like Ford, Johnson, Grant, Wilson, etc? The lack of interest in current world affairs, with omissions such as Sarkozy, Merkel, Hu, Peres, Mugabe and Berlusconi, is really quite surprising.

@hellofromUK: What about the preponderance of old and dead English monarchs on this list? While your point regarding ignorance about current world affairs remains valid, it's called history, and there's nothing wrong with it.

There's nothing wrong with history except that this quiz is in the Geography section.

Americans are obviously responsible for all the evils of the world and in this case one of the greatest injustices of our times - indifference to the wacky antics of Silvio Berlusconi. Hang your heads in shame, Americans. Hang your heads in shame.

Oh whoops, I totally published this quiz in the wrong area. >.> I make so many geography quizzes, I just automatically select it from the quiz genre menu.

Most popular on which wikipedia? I'd say it needs more time too, but great quiz. Should be published.

You should be consistent about numbered names. "Elizabeth" gets two, but "Nicholas" gets none...
