How are you defining "Amount of Water"? Lakes, rivers, reservoirs? A source would be helpful. Also, do you mean square kilometers?

So why did you not list the source (which, by the way, clearly states it includes only inland water bodies, delimited by coastlines)? Was it because of the big blurb at the top saying that the factual accuracy is disputed? Actually, the wikipedia article sources CIA Factbook, and the discussion is interesting. My complaint is that you seem to have just thrown together this quiz without even really reading your source. Given the effort good quizmakers put into their submissions, I have to rate this low, even though I like the idea. If I'm misjudging you, please let me know, and you'll get a sincere apology.

I forgot to list the source, and i still used it because even if it is disputed it seemed factually accurate, and it listed the CIA factbook. I didnt actually read the source, but i trust CIA factbook. I should have done better on the quiz, and i wont make excuses. I apologize for its sub-par nature, and i dont deserve an apology, but this definitely isnt my best work.
