I got about half, but the rest make sense as soon as I saw the answers. Good one!

Interesting quiz. It would be good to show the original language, either as part of clue or afterwards.

Wow I make really stupid guesses when I'm desperate. I guessed Gary for "Upland". Good quiz!

I guessed 'Upland' for 'Upland.' What? I live near Upland, Indiana.

Highland would be a more accurate translation than Upland. Good quiz.
