Nice one. Although I can understand some of the results, I do not understand how Russia is so comparatively low. Unless people already type that when reading the title before clicking on "start"...

@Ulkomaalainen Haha - yeah... It's like typing in Michael Jordan in 'The Greatest Athletes' quiz. Too easy. I'm guessing people were focusing on getting the hard ones so much, the easy ones didn't even come into their mind. It's fun to see people say, "OMG! How did I not get that??"

Are you including Greenland for Denmark? If so, there's no way it is smaller than Dominican Republic.

@TheBestDRose: That's exactly what happened to me. I got 63/65, but missed China. I was working all around its perimeter in my head, trying to think of huge countries (bigger than Chad) which start with "C."

@thebestdrose: you probably should consider including Greenland. Not only is it technically correct, because Greenland is an integral part of Denmark, but it is also what (most) Sporcle users are used to.

You guys, it doesn't matter; Denmark is included anyway... As long as it's in there, it doesn't matter what position it's in.

As jonbar 18 said, please do accept 'rep congo'. Maybe there's a typo somewhere, but it didn't accept it from me.

It always amazes me how Honduras is bigger than Hungary. And, as naqwerty3 says, it is funny to find a 'biggest countries' quiz where Fiji can be included but not Mauritania.

@osasunaitor That's definitely true!

not that it matters seeing as it made the list but i would have included greenland for denmark. it is part of the kingdom of denmark and on sporcle it is generally considered a part of denmark, so to not include it you are just letting yourself in for a barrage of "why aren't you including greenland?!"

Except it does matter as this quiz is not correct if Greenland is not considered part of Denmark.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Greenland either is or isn't part of Denmark. If it is, then Denmark needs to move up the list. If it is not, then we need to change every other geography quiz on Sporcle. I don't care what the standard is, but let's stick to it.

Greenland really should be part of Denmark, it is an autonomous territory which is represented in the Danish parliament, just like many Russian and Canadian autonomous territories.

Please accept 'rep congo' for Republic of the Congo (like most other Sporcle quizzes do).

Why are the two Congos under D and R? We don't put the complete titles of other countries under "Republic" or "Kingdom".

I think this quickly becomes a game of 'think of any country that begins with that letter'.

Second the "Rep Congo" comment, that was a little frustrating. Otherwise good quiz, great concept.

In response to anyone complaining about Congo: honestly, I did make it accept "Rep Congo". Remember: once a game gets published, the editors have full control, and they're the only ones that can change anything. So I'm pretty sure that that is a changed they made, not me.

Also, thanks to everyone for this published quiz! Thanks to the editors, too. And it was pretty hilarious that you guys missed obvious one like China. Lastly, @rnhaas, I'm not sure what you're saying. Probably just a mistake that the editors will fix. Once again, thanks everyone!
