	Fun quiz. Boy, some of those are difficult to spell.

	Kevin:	Oct 30th, 2008 at 21:12 GMT	3 points
	Bah, I knew all of these in eighth-grade Italian. Now, not so much.

	Thanks to years of playing Diplomacy, many of these were familiar to me. Nothing like sneaking into Marseilles from Piedmont!

	When I put in Tuscany, or Piedmont, they came up with the Italian spelling; but, not Sardinia.

	Scott: Works for me, either they fixed it already, or you spelled it wrong.

	LOL!! I got the islands and then in frustration I started writing Latin names. Erutria? Latium? Magna Graecia?

	Own up people. How many of you got Sicilia because of the Godfather?

	I can name the cities, not the regions. Ouch. A big 0/20 for me.

	As a Slovenian, I'm glad to see that the author of the quiz didn't paint the city of Trst (Trieste) white. :)

	Being Italian and a lover of geography, I think this is the greatest quiz of all time.

	@abaris: On the other hand, Vinjerac in Croatia is painted white.

	meltingbridge:	Oct 31st, 2008 at 08:26 GMT	4 points
	yeah, i only got the islands. time to study up on regions. how about one for spain?

	davidr:	Oct 31st, 2008 at 14:51 GMT	3 points
	@magister: `Erutria' should be `Etruria'. I know it's probably just a typo but I thought I'd mention it as I genuinely believed that Saturn's moon Enceladus was called `Encedalus' until I did the moons quiz the other day. :-)

	yeah, I noticed I typed that too. I figured I wouldn't address it unless someone else had. Thanks though! :)

	I'm embarrassed to admit Olive Garden commercials and The Princess Bride were responsible for my only correct answers.

	All in 49 seconds! I do live in Italy though so an unfair advantage.

	Tony:	Dec 16th, 2008 at 08:11 GMT	3 points
	I may be the only guy under 20 in south New Jersey that can name all of these.

	foreverfreebird:	Dec 22nd, 2008 at 20:19 GMT	3 points
	Yay! This is a great quiz, although I too live in Italy so I have a bit more incentive to know them. Thanks for accepting the Italian names and for displaying them as such; I never would have remembered all the English versions.

	Look at the map! The city of Trieste is left grey, but it belongs to Italy (Friuli-Venezia Giulia).

	ya i got 4

	newenglander:	Jun 22nd, 2009 at 18:04 GMT	1 point
	i keep typing in Friulia instead of friuli

	melissa:	Jul 17th, 2009 at 07:42 GMT	2 points
	Fun! But shouldn't it accept "Le Marche" as well as just "Marche"? And for consistency's sake, how about accepting "Marches" and "The Marches" as well, since other anglicized forms like Tuscany and Lombardy are OK?

	Auguste:	Aug 22nd, 2009 at 23:59 GMT	3 points
	Great quizz despite difficulties of spelling. What about the same for France, UK, Belgium, Brazil or South Africa ?

	foreverfreebird:	Aug 23rd, 2009 at 07:23 GMT	3 points
	I agree with Melissa that "Le marche" should be accepted. That's how we always referred to it, and I've worked at a kids' camp there the last two summers. In the Italian language, you would never say just "Marche."
