	I really need to study up on my African countries. I usually do fairly decent on European etc. but man, I only got 12 of these, hehe.

	@RJ: It accepts "RC," why not just type that? Time is of the essence on these 60 second blitz quizzes!

	Thank you for accepting DRC and CAR!

	I enter answers like Sao Tome and Principe and Equatorial Guinea, where I missed short answers like Rwanda and Angola. What's wrong with me?

	This is one of those quizzes where knowing Yakko's world really comes in handy.

	2.9% got 48 countries? I mean how is it possible to even type them in that fast I could probably name 40 countries in a minute or two but to do it and type them in spelled correctly??? sheesh Even if you cheated I am impressed.

	Most guessed that I missed? Ghana.... Wonder why that's on everyone's mind :P At least England have joined the USA now, though, so you can't feel too bad..

	in my head "Sao Tome and Principe.. no! something shorter... Sao Tome and Principe... no short countries... mali, good....Sao Tome and Principe! ahhh!!

	It isn't impossible. I did the European one in 60 seconds, though it took me like 30 tries. This is just super super duper hard, especially when you are on a lap top

	This IS super duper hard. I can name all the countries of Africa, but apparently I can't type them. At least not in a minute. And not in a minute when - like luckygemini - I kept thinking things like Sao Tome and Principe and Democratic Republic of Congo (didn't even think to try DRC).

	30. Not bad considering how many of those countries are so difficult to spell, let alone type, let alone type quickly, let alone type correctly. :)

	Good quiz.

	ShortyNJ:	Jun 27th, 2010 at 20:31 GMT	3 points
	This is just a typing test.

	NightOwl:	Jun 27th, 2010 at 21:13 GMT	2 points
	Have to agree this time with those who say there just isn't enough type to type them

	evil_fruit_girl:	Jun 27th, 2010 at 21:38 GMT	2 points
	Why do African countries have such long names!? Mauritius, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Sao Tome and Principe... Good grief!

	Monty, the whole thing is the 1 minute--you're not supposed to get them all. That said, I'm a little disappointed I went with Sao Tome and Madagascar over DCR and CAR...
