	Scotland was independent though in personal union with England (until 1707); you accept the Netherlands which was in a similar situation at that time, so should accept Scotland, or reject the Netherlands. Also: "Spainish Monarchy"? Otherwise, a good quiz.

	I believe that it is titled Spanish Monarchy and Austrian monarchy to show the two sides of the Hapsburg family and each of their holdings. Also, it shows that although Austria was, at least partially, in the Holy Roman Empire, yet also distinct, the titles make more sense. I suppose it makes more sense on a map than on this quiz, but for consistency, I will keep them as is, unless I can find a new reason. Scotland, though, I did miss. Thanks.

	thanks for making another one so quickly...what about wallachia, moldova, ukraine, saxony, and bavaria?

	amp2006:	Jan 12th, 2010 at 22:23 GMT	1 point
	If I am not mistaken, Wallachia and Moldavia were semi-autonomous sub-states under the Ottoman Empire, so not really independent. Ukraine was also semi-autonomous (but not really because at this point it was being sliced up) under Muscovy. Saxony and Bavaria were electors in the Holy Roman Empire (while they controlled their own lands, like many of the German states in the Holy Roman Empire, I have them grouped in the Empire as convenience).

	Nice idea for a quiz, but "Spainish" is not a word.

	The one German state that you could include is Prussia, as the Duchy of Prussia was outside the bounds of the Empire, and was fully independent (the rest of Brandenburg was still within the HRE). Oh, and fix the spelling of Spanish.

	You can't include some minor states like san marino and lucca and exclude others like Monferrat, Modena, Mantua, and Montenegro. Also Milan was under Spanish Rule at this time (ie this is Pre War of Spanish Succession).
