	That was a really great quiz! I really enjoyed it!

	Vatican City and Monaco should be accepted for the country in capital one.

	Too many questions have multiple answers. Flag color one, for instance.

	Wizzle:	Nov 23rd, 2009 at 08:31 GMT		1 point
	which others?

	Ireland also drives on the left and uses the Euro.

	Qazza2k9:	Nov 23rd, 2009 at 13:16 GMT		2 points
	I was just going to say it, we Irish also drive on the left and use Euro

	RyanUR:	Nov 23rd, 2009 at 13:48 GMT		6 points
	I would say, culturally speaking, that Lithuania is in Eastern Europe, not Northern Europe. Also, I would hardly call Serbia the "middle" of Europe.

	Romania also borders the west coast of the Black Sea. I'd guess that the UK and Greece, at the very least, are also surrounded by over a hundred islands. Also, Denmark may have been an original member of the "EU," but I'd think "founding EU member" would normally be taken to apply to the original six ECSC/EEC countries (i.e. Benelux, France, Germany, Italy). Also, the United Kingdom never included more territory than Great Britain and Ireland. The British Empire was obviously larger, but Canada, Australia, India, etc., were never part of the United Kingdom.

	For double answers, I'd add that many European countries do not have an official state religion. Hell, the United Kingdom doesn't - there are (separate) state religions in England and Scotland, but none for the country as a whole, and none for Wales or Northern Ireland.

	I love the hint for Poland I think it is well cool, and great game!!

	It's not just the Netherlands who have a red light district is it?

	Belgium is also very famous for their chocolate.

	Good Game. LOL I got like one

	QuizKingJon:	Nov 23rd, 2009 at 22:13 GMT		4 points
	I enjoyed this quiz, but I think 'flag with identical colours to Indonesia' suggests Poland or Monaco as all three are half red and half white (one is the opposite way round). Austria does have the same colours, but in that case so does Switzerland, Denmark and Turkey.

	WindSword:	Nov 23rd, 2009 at 23:32 GMT		3 points
	I don't think Vatican City levies an income tax on its citizens either.

	Steesh:	Nov 24th, 2009 at 01:44 GMT		3 points
	Yeah, couple of flaws but overall a good game. Maybe add clocks to Switzerland as to me Belgium is waay more famous for chocolate. Also there are definitely other red light districts around Europe. Not sure that's what the Dutch will want to be known for :D.

	Craig:	Nov 24th, 2009 at 02:53 GMT		1 point
	Fun quiz but it would be better if so many of the hints weren't about flags and backwards spellings. There's a lot else to say about these countries.

	olly26c:	Nov 24th, 2009 at 03:09 GMT		1 point
	Lord knows I can think of a few more places in Europe that have red light districts!

	koopa08:	Aug 23rd, 2010 at 14:38 GMT		1 point
	You misspelled Guinness and I believe the "pile of dirt" on Slovakia's flag represents the Carpathian Mountains.

	RyanUr: Lithuania is a part of East Europe (which is everything east of Berlin except Greece) and Northern Europe (which is Scandinavia, Iceland, Denmark, Finland and the Baltic states). Also, Denmark was not a founder of Denmark, we joined it in the 70's.

	nadivereb:	Nov 17th, 2010 at 15:57 GMT		1 point
	Denmark is not a founder of the EU. Belgium is both famous for the chocolate and has Red Light Districts. Slovakia's coat of arms is not "a cross buried in dirt". Kosovo is not the only European country that is only partially recognized: you yourself state that in the hint for Cyprus.

	Zephos:	Nov 17th, 2010 at 22:35 GMT		3 points
	Saying Lithuania used to be the biggest country in reference to the Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth is really misleading. Poland was the actual power in that state, like the Austro-Hungarian empire was really just the Austrian Empire by a new name. They both incorporated lesser courts and nobility of a internal territory into their constitutions and gave them degrees of sovereignty, but the Poles and Austrians were still the power.
