	It's standard for Sporcle (and just about everywhere else) to consider Armenia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Kazakhstan to be part of Asia, not Europe. Also, why use the Latin-language version of Switzerland?

	Suren:	Jul 14th, 2010 at 12:07 GMT		5 points
	I'd add a comment that Transcaucasian countries are also included. They are the border between Europe and Asia. As for Kazakhstan, it's partially in Europe. I used latin-language version of Switzerland 'cause this term is used often and at that to compicate the test a bit)

	I agree with fidelio, and I still can't see a comment. And it's to much time. After going quickly through them all one time I had five miutes to guess the last 10 countries. That was quite easy :) Nice quiz though, I actualy thought about doing it myself.

	The United Kingdom is missing from the list - while English might be a bit pointless, you could include the Welsh name for it.

	I've just added a comment, sleepless. I knew that most of this quiz would be very-very easy and the rest of it just impossible for the most. Nevertheless... it was my first quiz and I'm ready for some criticism. Now I' m going to add smth about unrecognised countries, disputable territories and so on...

	Oh, thanks for suggestion, cuendillar. "Y Deyrnas Unedig" - is this welsh?

	Belgium has 3 official languages, so either include all 3 of them or only use the language most people speak, which is DUTCH and not French. Why do people keep thinking Belgium is a French speaking country??? So change it to België/Belgique/Belgien or just België.

	For Switzerland, Helvetica is a part of "Confœderatio Helvetica" which is the long form of its Latin name. If you want the short form, you could write "Helvetia". This version is used on Swiss currency and postage stamps.

	Wow, I had no idea Monaco had its own language.

	Suren:	Jul 14th, 2010 at 14:39 GMT		3 points
	Monégasque dialect is not official language but still is widely spoken in Monaco

	Too much time! I finished with 6.5 minutes to go and that was with a ton of guessing too.

	flixuk:	Jul 14th, 2010 at 15:56 GMT		1 point
	this is just too easy. most people are getting all of them or almost all of them.

	This is a very good quiz. I just have some constructive criticism. First, as stated above, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Armenia and Georgia should not be included. They are not considered European countries on Sporcle. Second, there is no reason for the clues to jump around randomly. When there is no reason for random clues, the fact that the clues jump around can be annoying.

	Sporcle generally recognizes Kosovo...

Even though Latin is an official language of Vatican City, the country is almost always known by the Italian "Città del Vaticano." That's what's on postage stamps, passports, etc. Besides, "Santa Sede" is Italian, not Latin. If you really want Latin you could put "Sancta Sedes" or better yet "Civitas Vaticana" but I really think "Città del Vaticano" is better.

	It's true that Georgia etc. aren't usually counted as Europe on Sporcle, but they add an interesting twist to this quiz, and you're clear about it upfront; I for one like the inclusion!

	It's surprising that 3% didn't guess France or Andorra, 4% didn't guess Liechtenstein or Portugal, and 5% didn't guess Moldova or Malta, when all they had to do is copy exactly the country's name from the first box.

	Sherry_t:	Feb 26th, 2012 at 20:58 GMT		1 point
	By the way, "Santa Sede" means Holy See, but not Vatican City.
