Perhaps you should add other 'stans', ones that aren't countries. Waziristan is the only one I can think of, though.

Masternachos: Kurdistan, Hindustan, Balochistan, among others...they should at least be extra credit, since there aren't that many 'stans.

Are the hints necessary? Either you know the "stans" or you don't.

I thought it was a fun little quiz and there was nothing wrong with it. You people are far too demanding.

Dagestan is another non-country that could work as a bonus.

I think it would be better if you had to answer them in the right order, including Baluchistan, Kurdistan, etc.

Afghanistan has never been invaded by India... its the other way round... Mughals belonged to Afghanistan and came to India...

I understand. That was my first one, and everyone has to start somewhere, right?

It would also be easy to find Stans if you strayed from geography. :P I'll start with Stan Lee, creator of Spiderman.

To anyone with a brain, Kazakhstan is NOT known because of Borat, and I resent that you assume it is. Also, that should say "its," not "it's."
