	On behalf of all sporclers everywhere I would like to invite Kyrgyzstan to be the 21st member.

	Oh right, "economies," not "countries." I was wondering what economically significant country there was alphabetically between C and F.

	dizzygothica:	Jan 12th, 2013 at 04:19 GMT		4 points
	yes, I wondered why economies, but after the quiz finished I could see the point. Bummer

	Why is South Africa out of alphabetical order?

	I must be severely underestimating the economic power of Ecuador. Estonia? Eritrea? El Salvador?

	I went the other direction with the hint. Thought of less than national entities rather than supranational ones. And, no, I will not be telling you how many times I tried typing in "England"...

	I don't think a typo on Ecuador has ever payed off so well for anyone before as it did for me in this quiz.

	Nope, the EU as an entity is a member, so it should be here. NAFTA and all the other organizations are not. If one would just consider the largest economies and drop the EU, you'd actually have two more EU countries (Spain and the Netherlands) instead of smaller ones like Argentina and Turkey - which admittedly grow a lot faster.

	Italy and the UK are in the EU as well, and Turkey has applied to join. However, the fact remains that the quiz asks for the membership of the G20 and one of the 20 members is the EU. The note to the quiz is quite clear that one of the answers is not an independent nation. I will admit I tried the UN first [facepalm].

	slinger89 If you Kyrgyzstan the heat, stay out of the kitchen.

	Cant believe I forgot South Korea (hangs head in shame), was never going to get the EU was only thinking of counties.

	timmaay531:	Jan 12th, 2013 at 11:01 GMT		22 points
	For those of you complaining about the EU being included as an answer - the quiz creator cannot change the economies of the G20. He's just going with the facts, not making something up.

	Sure, I entered Djibouti. Does that make me a bad guy or just a desperate idiot? I actually wondered why someone would use "economies" in the title, but attributed it to a non-native english speaker. So much for my lunacy. Good quiz

	I never knew Mexicos real name was "United Mexican States of America" and then you got "The United States of America" and then you just got "Canada" up there

	AtomicIce:	Jan 12th, 2013 at 16:39 GMT		2 points
	I love that phrase "country-like entities" on the home page. I'm going to have to use that.

	nittanybluehen:	Jan 12th, 2013 at 17:19 GMT		2 points
	Kudos to those who got the EU. Tricky.

	jseve001:	Jan 12th, 2013 at 20:29 GMT		6 points
	@NotThere The G20 is made objectively made up of the twenty largest economies on Earth. There are no "token" nations. South Africa is a member because it has the largest economy in Africa and one of the largest in the world (ever heard of the BRICS?).

	jjf:	Jan 12th, 2013 at 20:51 GMT		5 points
	Actually, the G20 is not exactly the twenty largest countries/economies. Other factors, including geography, matter, and some countries with GDPs larger than South Africa's are not in the G20 (e.g., Taiwan, Iran, Norway, Switzerland; the latter two are not EU members).

	villainousheroes:	Jan 12th, 2013 at 23:04 GMT		-3 points
	Alright, I got 18/20 without knowing what the G20 is. It's pretty good, no?

	@Honest_John: That's the sorta Kyrgyzstan joke I'm talking about. Pure quality!

	@DougButcher: You left out my personal favorite - Elbonia.
