	There are 2 bonus answers, the first of which wasn't listed because of a boycot by the Chinese, and the second of which was listed, but is not an independent country.

	Very nice quiz, Sjoerd. Points out that it's more about politics than really bringing together the 20 biggest economies.

	@Pelmert: I'm from the Netherlands, which is among the 20 biggest economies, but I can't blame the politicians for not including my country in the G20 (though they attended 3 out of 4 G20 meetings), since Europe is already very well represented (also by the EU). Spain however shouldn't have been omitted. Iran and Taiwan are of course refused membership on political grounds.

	Again I fail miserably due to my lack of question-reading ability. Thought it was per capita for some reason, which explains the absence of Luxembourg, Liechtenstein et al.

	No bangladesh, no vietnam, considering there huge population, thats quite bizar.

	Why are all the "You might also like these games" links to games about Taylor Swift?

	@Bretzky: that is nonsensical - if those governments agreed with you, they wouldn't bother with the G20. As far as I know, South Korea does not hold a large amount of US and European debt. In fact most European and US debt is held in Europe and the US - and I really don't see why the ownership of this debt is so important. Anyway, Russia matters because of its military might and permanent membership of the UN security council. Saudi Arabia, Canada, Australia and others matter due to their huge reserves of vital natural resources. India, Indonesia, and Brazil matter because of their massive populations.

	Nice quiz. I understand that every country in the top 25 but not in the G-20 has a good reason for it. Spain, Poland, and Netherlands aren't here because the EU is there. Taiwan and Iran aren't here because of political reasons. And Thailand isn't here because it's economy is too small; the reason why South Africa, with an even smaller economy, is here, is mainly because they want an African country.

	I'd vow for a G7 with Europa (as one entity), America, China, India, Japan, Russia and Brazil. All other large economies are both smaller and have interests that are shared by one of these seven (for Mexico and Canada: USA, for S. Korea: Japan, for Indonesia: India, et cetera). Maybe the OPEC could be included to represent the oil and natural gas exporting countries.
