	Good quiz but I'd suggest making people answer for each individual monarch as otherwise you can just guess all the countries that have monarchies

	I agree. I got them all with eight minutes to spare. Good idea though.

	For Elizabeth II, please also accept the following: Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Jamaica, Barbados, the Bahamas, Grenada, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Belize, Antigua and Barbuda, and Saint Kitts and Nevis.

	I never thought of the Vatican as a monarchy. But it is a great quiz.

	Seemingly the purpose of the game was to include all monarchiesin the world, so the principality of Monaco and the kingdom of Tonga should be included. It's true that they are small countries, but the principality of Liechtenstein is included and it's also small. A curious thing is that the prince of Monaco has the same name as the monarch of another European country, so both answers should be given as correct.

	Belgium and Monaco both have monarchs named Albert II.

	Vatican City is not a Monarchy, Benedict XVI is the Pope which is the Head of the Roman Catholic Church, not a monarch.

	Technically speaking, the Pope is the absolute ruler of the Vatican and thus is considered a monarch. Its government type is described as "Sacerdotal-Monarchical". And thanks for reminding me about Monaco and Tonga. I'll update it.

	When I put Monaco, Belgium comes up. The answer should be made Belgium & Monaco and both answers should be accepted. It's different then writing Jamaica and then UK popping up. They are different people as a monarch, albeit being the same name. But if you think that writing "Belgium & Monaco" might imply that the two different countries are controlled by the same monarch this might be added as a side note. Also "Vatican" should be accepted for "Vatican City"

	For the two Alberts, simply put one as King Albert II, and the other as Prince Albert II. Also, to be really complete, you could add either Joan Enric Vives Sicília or Nicolas Sarkozy for the Principality of Andorra, as they are co-princes.
