Not surprising, almost all are in Africa and Middle east/southwest Asia.

Title does need changing. It does say countries in the instructions but it's that obvious.

I thought about changing the info to make state/country usage uniform, but the geopolitical term is "failed states", as seen in the source material, but the name of the state would be it's political name, not the name of the country. Plus Sporcle doesn't generally refer to nations as "states" but as "countries".
