	Every language should refer to Ecuador as "Ekvador".

	Why is Ivory Coast (which I just read about in the comments) no longer there? That seems like a pretty good one. Good quiz. Really enjoyed it.

	1st seemed like a cakewalk, but Řecko got me, you always think you've covered all countries from a given area, but what do you know...

	"Gruzie" made more sense to me for Greece. "Recko"? Not in a million years.

	"oh this'll be easy" ... hit Litva - latvia? libya? downhill from there.

	I got Greece from Recko thinking Grecko Roman Wrestling for some reason.

	i'm sure i'm the only one who tried Slovenia before backspacing and going with Slovakia.

	I just read about the silly law passed by the Czech Parliament, banning the use of trampolines anywhere in the country. Apparently, it's illegal to bounce a Czech.

	Bizarrely knowing a tiny amount of Hungarian helped me get Germany right.

	I hate to trot out an old Sporcle joke ... but I can't be the only person who was curious what "Kyrgyzstan" looked like in Czech.

	Are you sure you didn't accidentally switch Latvia and Lithuania?

	@_the_doctor_ - it is perhaps worth bearing in mind that the Lithuanian name for Lithuania is Lietuva.

	dancastro:	Feb 1st, 2012 at 20:11 GMT		6 points
	@_the_doctor_: no, "Litva" is Lithuania (and not Latvia) in practically all the Slavic languages, and Czech is a Slavic language. There are some spelling variants (like Litwa in Polish) and of course the Cyrillic/Latin alphabets, but the essential form of Lithuania is always "Litva".

	@Clint: According to Wikipedia, it's Kyrgyzstán.

	Don't downvote the doctor, I'm pretty sure he wasn't serious and was just commenting about how they sound interchangeable and can trip up a lot of people. Also, if I wasn't familiar with "Gruzinia" (the Hebrew word for Georgia), probably would not have guessed it.
