	It's right that England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland aren't included as countries -- in most ways, they're much closer in status to the states of the USA. Also, Great Britain shouldn't be accepted as an alternative for the UK -- Great Britain is the large island that contains most of England, Wales and Scotland. In particular, it doesn't include Northern Ireland. On the other hand, given that USA is accepted in the North America quiz, UK should be accepted in Europe.

	This is not the place to argue politics but, if Kosovo is to be included in the quiz, it should be marked on the map.

	@christina - When did you/scotland declare independance? just because a place has its own government doesn't make it independent. westminster could just as easily take that government away from you. United Kingdom is the Country. Wales, Scotland, England, N.I (at a stretch Isle of man and falklands) are all effectivly just states of it. It certanly seems to be on the road to breaking up, but its not quite there yet

	"It is part of the United Kingdom" funny how you missed that part out which came straight after it. we'll agree to disagree, but the "country/state/region/land/kingdom" of scotland whatever you want to call it. is part of the country The United Kingdom. Scots can vote in the united kingdom elections can they not? In Fairness though i wouldnt be suprised if in a couple of years the UK did break up though

	davidr:	Oct 2nd, 2008 at 19:19 GMT	38 points
	@Christina: Scots don't, in my experience, feel at all insulted to be counted as part of the United Kingdom. They feel insulted to be called part of England, which is an entirely different matter. Scotland does very well out of the UK: per capita spending on public services in Scotland in 2002-03 was 21% higher than in England and the figures are similar today. All of that money comes from UK taxes, subsidized by the much larger population of England; if Scotland were to become independent, their taxes would have to rise a lot to provide the same level of spending.

	davidr:	Oct 2nd, 2008 at 19:24 GMT	13 points
	@MikeHolmes90: Yes, Scots vote in UK parliamentary elections and the members of parliament they elect get to vote on matters that affect England only, which means they can vote as their party tells them to, without having to worry what the people will think. Matters that affect Scotland or Wales only are dealt with by the corresponding national parliament so English members of the UK parliament don't get to vote there. In the past, the reverse often applied, with various pieces of unpopular legislation such as the Community Charge (the so-called "Poll Tax") being trialled in Scotland first, even though most Scottish MPs were strongly against it. But two wrongs don't make a right...

	Why dosen't Kaliningrad Oblast get shaded when you type in 'Russia'? I always think that there is a country missing.

	Cool game. The only reason I got Slovenia is because of Anze Kopitar.

	Also UK could be an alternative to United Kingdom if USA is in the North American quiz.

	speaking of acronyms for countries how come UK isn't accepted but FYROM is?

	davidr:	Dec 4th, 2008 at 20:11 GMT	11 points
	@WarioBro: You have to type `Bosnia-Herzegovina' out in full because that's the name of the country. Just like you have to type both parts of `United States' or `Saudi Arabia'.

	also, sporcle, you should color in kaliningrid oblast when russia is typed in and the same thing goes with denmark's islands.

	Lulu:	Dec 6th, 2008 at 17:30 GMT	25 points
	Also on the colouring thing, Corsica and Sardinia should be coloured when you type France or Italy, respectively.
