Oman has an exclave with coastline on the Persian Gulf, so please add Oman to the quiz.

@FreakyFlyBry, thanks! Just another piece of land that it's difficult to get a figure for, I'm just going to assume the western half is on the Persian Gulf and the eastern on the Gulf of Oman. Also if anyone can source more concrete figures for any of the countries, please post it in a comment.

So WHY exactly do we have to name them in order?

It makes it a little trickier, I thought it was fun.

I found it a bit frustrating that it kept telling me the answers when I guessed incorrectly. I'd prefer the chance to figure it out myself, not have half the answers completed for me.

Quite surprising that Saudi is only 3rd, and that Oman is so far down (with the majority of its coastline not being on the Gulf).

Just thought I'd point out that this quiz had an satellite picture of the persian gulf attached before it was published, which might explain the forced order and no second guess format. Without the picture maybe it would be preferable to get rid of the no second guess format.

It really should mention in the title that this is a blitz.

I like the idea of the quiz, but I agree with will101, it is a blitz not a quiz. Plus why do we have to name the countries in order?

Nice quiz. I think they need to be in order because it goes from the longest to shortest. So the first you guess is the longest (iran) and the last you say is the shortest (iraq). I found the quiz easy even without a map.
