	Sometimes you only accept the english name (Munich) and sometimes only the german name (Nuremberg). Please fix that. Nice quiz though.

	At first, this quiz really frustrated me. I gave up when it wouldn't accept London, Madrid, or Rome. About then I looked up, and the feeling of stupidity sank in. Just evidence that even the best quizzes aren't idiot proof. Nice job.

	I like this series, hope you continue it. But, as jdog says, you should accept all English names, as is sporcle convention.

	I don't particularly like this quiz, because the UN definition simply doesn't coincide with common usage for the term Western Europe.

	@jdog: Nuremberg is the English name. The German one is Nürnberg.

	You can take a look at the map to know what countries are given (what is also a good geography test in my opinion).

	@dancastro: I know, Im not saying that nuremberg is the german name, Im saying that in the case of Nuremberg they should accept that as well as the german spelling.

	I would say just have a map of the UN defined defintion instead of the whole world. The colors between Western and Northern Europe are barely distinguishable. I assume the UK/Ireland are considered northern, but that seems counter-intuitive.

	western europe is pinkish purple. northern europe is pinkish red. you can tell the regions apart. How does the quiz being 75% german make it bad or boring? germany IS the most populated country in europe (that is considered to be fully inside of europe) and it contains MOST of the largest countries in western europe. just because most cities are german does not make it boring, its the idea of the quiz you cannot just change it

	I realise that the fault here is with the source rather than the quiz creator, but any source which does not consider the UK, Spain and Italy to be part of "Western Europe" is clearly using a very different definition of the term to that which most people would understand by it - and as has been said, the colours used for northern and western Europe on the map are pretty much indistinguishable. Nice idea, but sticking slavishly to a poor source makes for a poor quiz.

	The map shows Mexico to be Central America which is inaccurate.

	@ChilyNoseJam: Spain and Italy are often not considered part of Western Europe, especially Spain. Spain didn't join the Western European Union until 1990 for instance.

	While personally I define Denmark, Germany, Austria and everything west of it as western Europe. But good quiz, reminds me of how little I actually know from my neighbours.
