	You could add Åland for Finland :)

	Good idea for a quiz. You could also add Spain and Portugal. Also, I think you should accept some synonyms and abbreviations, e.g. St Helena, US Virgin Islands, South Sandwich Islands/South Georgia (separately), ...

	Sorry if I'm being stupid here. Isn't French Guiana part of France proper and so should not be counted (otherwise could include Northern Territories in Australia... or somewhere like Hawaii)?

	A few things: you did not list Peter I Island (Norway). I typed in 'Heard and McDonald Islands' but didn't get credit, as they are listed separately. Those two islands usually go together, like several of the other answers on this quiz. Howland and Baker Islands are also oftentimes grouped together. I noticed you have a number of territories listed under France that I haven't seen credited as territories/dependencies (Glorioso, Juan de Nova, Tromelin). I typed in 'Tristan da Cunha Group' but received no credit. Also, Channel Islands is usually acceptable instead of listing Jersey and Guernsey separately, as there are more than just those two main islands. I enjoyed the quiz very much.

	Jersey and Guernsey are separate entities, so they should always be accepted separately. There's a few semantics that could be sorted, and a few of the ones I tried weren't accepted (but that might just be down to my own lack of knowledge of what's a territory and what's classed as part of the country proper), but otherwise good quiz :)

	The small uninhabited French islands (except for Clipperton) are now part of the French Southern and Antarctic Lands. Saint-Barthélemy and Saint-Martin are now separate from Guadeloupe, and the Netherlands Antilles have dissolved into the individual islands of Bonaire, Curaçao, Saba, Sint Eustatius, and Sint Maarten. You may also want to include the British Antarctic Territory, Australian Antarctic Territory, and Ross Dependency.

	...and all the other antarctic territories.
