	I know it's quite a simple quiz so far, but if you have more suggestions for harder countries, please fire away :)

	I think you mean llamas rather than lamas. I was thinking of the Dalei Lama.

	xxnitsuaxx:	Dec 14th, 2009 at 15:50 GMT	1 point
	I was thinking of Lorenzo Lamas...no joke. Ans less time. Like 3 minutes less.

	AlexRandom:	Dec 14th, 2009 at 15:53 GMT	5 points
	Agreed with Anderson. Lamas together with Indians got me to try every SE Asia country plus Tibet. Maybe besides adding the extra L to llamas you could change Indians to Incas. Aside from that, great quiz! As for more suggestions, maybe you could have "Tango, Beef, Evita" for Argentina, and "Bulls, Flamenco, Conquistadores" for Spain.

Comment below threshold: show it

	For Brazil, it should be "Carnaval"

	cysion:	Dec 14th, 2009 at 16:44 GMT	2 points
	Fixed the lamas/Llamas. Fixed the time. And added Spain and Argentina. @erikjc: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazilian_Carnival. It really depends on the context. But Carnival shouldn't be wrong. @joebobs: if you want to see a mildly offensive quiz, check out my stereotypes quiz. This quiz is just a list of common yet positive associations. And I don't live in the USA. I just didn't include it.

	I would say Italy and Belgium come off the best in this.

	It might just be me, but I think Greece works for "Islands, Coasts, Balkans" too.

	HiddenPalace:	Dec 14th, 2009 at 23:00 GMT	1 point
	Mongolia was hard. I think a similar quiz has already been done for 'Stereotypes of Countries' or something like that.

	NatalijaS:	Dec 14th, 2009 at 23:27 GMT	5 points
	Islands, coasts, balkans could be a few countries. I'd make that a little more specific.

	Isn't yodelling more a Swiss thing? Not that many of the Austrian alternatives I can think of are very appealing...

	smarty:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 04:46 GMT	1 point
	@olly26c sound of music reference i assume

	Fidelio:	Dec 18th, 2009 at 07:27 GMT	2 points
	Jamaica could work nicely for this quiz. Using reggae as a clue might be too easy - maybe "Rastafari, sprinters, and cornrows."

	Ghana: Kente, plantain, highlife, slave castles, beaches, football, cocoa, gold...and of those and many more

	Croatia wasn't all that obvious. Went for Greece first. And yellow with China seems a bit racist to me. Chopsticks or bamboo would have been more appropriate IMO.

	XYlophonetreeZ:	Feb 9th, 2010 at 18:59 GMT	2 points
	Yellow COULD be racist, but there's also the Yellow River. Still, if that was the intent, it's really easy to misconstrue and therefore should probably be changed. Pandas is another good option. @joebobs, cysion calls the national sport of Brazil "football," so I'm guessing he's not from the USA.

	The Bolivia clues are very confusing and nonspecific.

	firedrake:	May 13th, 2010 at 18:37 GMT	2 points
	The spelling for little green men is "leprechaun".

	blokeyfella:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 00:41 GMT	2 points
	change yellow to yellow river then its all good

	Bulletchewer6:	Aug 10th, 2010 at 20:50 GMT	1 point
	To my mind, Norway is more famous than Iceland for Fjords, while Denmark (and Minnesota) is more famous for vikings than Norway. Indeed, you could replace Bolivia (which has the poorest clues) with Denmark, offering: Bacon, Vikings, Pastries (or Cartoons?).
