How can so many good quizzes be made just from a list of countries of the world? Thanks, Sporcle, but without you my GPA might be 6.0 instead of 4.5..

@MerfiSmerfi, in what way is England not a country? yes its part of the United Kingdom, but its still a country, hence it plays seperately from world cup events from the rest of the UK, as do the other countries, Scotland and Wales. England is a country, has seven letters, it should be in this quiz

@reggaeking: England is not a country in anything except certain sports that it invented (soccer, rugby, cricket). In the Olympics it competes as part of Great Britain. People are of British nationality, and have British passport.

But we compete in the World Cup as England. England is the country, Great Britain is the island, and United Kingdom is the conglomerate of England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales under the government and the Queen.

Curse you Senegal! Yeah, about this England thing, England is a country, but its part of the UK, which is a state with sovereignty over the 4 countries that comprise it. Most quizzes on sporcle are wrong, because they should say 'state' instead of country, but honestly, who is that pedantic? Oh, right.... me.

@nexus, So if someone from New York says they are a New Yorker, does that make New York a country? I would have liked to have seen the answers in alpha order. I know that makes it too easy for you sporcle geog freaks but you can name all of the countries anyway. For normal humans it would be nice to be able to fill in the gaps rather than randomly roam the globe in your mind trying to fill in the blanks. Cut the time if that's what it takes. By the last minute I had pretty much given up anyway.

Ack! There were
seven
different countries that I missed because I thought of them and then mentally miscounted the letters. I can forgive myself Morocco because it's first thing in the morning, but Algeria? Really? Spelled exactly. like. it. sounds. No excuse for miscounting letters there. Argh.

About this UK thing... in all other published Sporcle quizzes that have to do with countries, the UK is always an answer when it satisfies the criteria, and England, Scotland, and Wales are not. Why should this one be any different?

England is not actually a separate country anyway, the legal entity within the UK is England and Wales (or Wales is not one of the countries because it's legally part of England...or something).

Reggaeking - If Football and FIFA were all that was neccesary you'd also have places like Faroe Islands, New Caledonia and Guadaloupe being classed in this bracket. Perhaps nation is a better term to use as country seems to come off rather ambiguous.

I only missed 6 and I'm pretty pleased about that. Usually, when asked to actually *think* ;) of countries in some kind of manner other than the order I memorized them all in for the Countries of the World quiz, I fail miserably. So 35 out of 41 is pretty darn good!

@ the Engalnd vs. UK debate. I can't believe everyone argues about Engalnd and forgets about Sctalnd and Whalezz! And before you ask...My 'How geography can solve your dyslexia' course is going extremely well.

@steelwolf Yes, Sporclitis. Thank you for the word that explains the unique ability to get the obscure and miss the obvious frequently displayed by Sporclers and usually followed by *facepalm*. Now I know what to call it...

I propose the next in this series drop the adverb "only" from the "Can you name" part. Based on the numbers of countries in each quiz in this series, the median length for a country name per Sporcle convention is actually 7. (Just a nitpicky semantic issue that nobody else cares about.) But there should definitely be an 8-letter country quiz eventually.

@Pita - clearly New York isn't a country, its quite clearly a state. @Flick the reason no one has mentioned those countries is because they haven't got 7 letters, so aren't applicable to this quiz, but yes, they are separate countries in their own right. and all together they make up the United Kingdom. @ Steesh - pretty sure those countries arent really big enough to have a major football team... @daisyap: when i get asked where i am from, i say England, as does everyone else i know, no one says the UK, unless the person they are talking to has no idea about these seperate COUNTRIES. why do you think we have a seperate flag? same as all the others in the UK. why do we have a seperate national anthem?
