	1) Accept last names (Sigurdardottir and Grimsson). 2) It's Demonym, not Denonym. 3) Accept 'krona' for Icelandic Krona. 4) It's lowest point, not lowest peak. 5) Accept 'atlantic ocean' and 'atlantic' for the North Atlantic Ocean. 6) Per Sporcle convention, you should accept 'christian' for Christianity. And I would change the colors if I were you. All the other country quizzes have colors that reflect the nation's flag. Otherwise good.

	Thanks for the comment, all has been fixed! If there's anything else, please let me know.

	Iceland was first settled in 874. And lowest point should be changed to deepest lake. People might think lowest point on land. By the way, the deepest lake is Öskjuvatn which is -217m.

	Besides, last time Iceland became independent was in 1918. Republic was proclaimed in 1944...

	Since the population is requested in thousands, 317 should be accepted as an answer.

	When looking at the wikipedia article about Þórisvatn I saw that you have the size of the lake wrong. It's actually 88 km2 large but you have written the number for depth, which is 109. Talking about depth... Recently it was made public that Jökulsárlón is actually quite a lot deeper than Öskjuvatn, so that should be corrected. Mikið rosalega er samt asnalegt að skrifa þetta á ensku.

	You should accept just the first names for the Prime Minister (and first and middle for the President). Someone would say "Prime Minister Johanna" not "Prime Minister Sigurdardottir," right?
