Equatorial Guinea is not a Lusophone country.

Well, Equatorial Guinea has three official languages : portuguese, spanish and french. It was first an portuguese colony (along with the islands of Sao Tome), before it was turned away to Spain in a exchange against part of Uruguay. Britain also occupied the land for about 10-15 years. In fact, only spanish is spoken there, but being an officially french/portuguese speaking country allows Equatorial Guinea to be part of many transnational organisations, such as Francophony and its portuguese counterpart.

Equatorial Guinea's official languages do not include Portuguese, and you also forgot Macau, their official languages are Chinese and Portuguese.

@ShadowCruz, Macau is not a country. I'm still not entirely sure about Equatorial Guinea. Almost all reliable sources I've checked have said that it doesn't have Portuguese as an official language (CIA for example), but some less reliable say it has (Wikipedia, of course!). So I've decided to remove it, unless someone can find a reliable source that says it is (Equatorial Guinea government website maybe?)

Sorry about this, but Equatorial Guinea is back in! Equatorial Guinea has just made Portuguese its third official language in order to get into the "Community of Portuguese Speaking Nations." Apparently the president of EG thought it would be a good idea to wait until I had removed it from this quiz, before he made Portuguese an official language, just to mess up my results page. Well thank you Mr President! :)
