	This is a good idea for a quiz, but it has several obvious problems, including misspelled answers and characters that don't show up on my monitor. I would suggest making all the clues English transliterations, so that it's possible for non-Arabic readers to distinguish between the various countries with Arabic names. Also, some (or even most) of the answers are trivially easy. So it might be a good idea to include only the countries whose English names are not included in their local names.

	It's a good quiz but I think it should be longer, also some of the characters (like china and korea) don't show up on my monitor so maybe you could put the pronunciation of those countries. Overall it's a good quiz and it makes me happy I took Russian.

	I agree that the countries with English names should not be included. For example, it doesn't make much sense to present "Canada" and have us re-type "Canada". Also, I would decrease the font size significantly, and do away with the clues that require special characters (which show up as a row of boxes on my computer). Otherwise, good effort...keep working on it! :)

	You should fix "El Slavador" and "Lichtenstein". Some characters didnt show up for me as well. Otherwise, good quiz!

	Thanks guys for commenting, I will take all your suggestions seriously and will fix this quiz when my exams are over. Thanks guys, God Bless.

	also, it won't accept "Dominican Republic" for "The Dominican Republic"

	a bit too easy...

	Solomon Islands and Taiwan is just left blank. An from the results, I can say that Kuwait is put as the answer for Kosovo. These has to be corrected. FYI, The languages on this test which do not appear in the bulk of the browsers are Amharic (Ethiopia and Eritrea), Burmese (Myanmar or Burma depending on your political alignment), Khmer (Cambodia) and Sinhala (Sri Lanka). Lao fonts can be seen on Firefox, but not on IE, if you're not using W7 or Vista.

	I think time limits should be two or three minutes longer, my hands need mercy.

	dazbradley:	May 10th, 2010 at 14:48 GMT	1 point
	Good idea for a quiz, but PLEEEEEEEEEEASE make it longer. Do you know how long it takes to type Democratic Republic of the Congo, taking into account typing errors? I honestly think it would take more than nine minutes just to type the names of all of the countries of the world without any thinking time.

	demonstah:	May 10th, 2010 at 15:12 GMT	1 point
	Agreed with all of above. 5 minutes more are necessary - even with skipping the Cyrillic names to come back to later, I didn't have time for one time through the list. I am adept at the countries of the world quiz, and it takes me 8-9 minutes just to type all the countries in. This requires reading and thinking, and consequently needs more time.

	demonstah:	May 10th, 2010 at 15:25 GMT	1 point
	And it's not "The Mauritius" - there's no plural. And it's simply "Fiji".

	sullivti:	May 26th, 2010 at 18:16 GMT	2 points
	Not enough time, otherwise very well done.
