	This is neat. I do wish you could come up with a source that was a little more consistent (e.g., Casachia and Uzbecia seem to be coming from a different translation paradigm than Tadzikistania, presumably because Wikis Are Like That), but I'm not sure that anyone other than Latin Wikipedia has need to translate all those country names into Latin...

	@micah: How about the Vatican? They put out official documents in Latin and are the seat of the Catholic (lit: all-encompassing, for everyone) Church, after all.

	Quod?, Casachi et Uzbecia, sed non Kirghizia?

	I clicked on this thinking I was going to get a 'what countries speak Spanish and Portuguese?' quiz, but this is much better. Cleverly done.

	This is one of my favourite of the 'countries in another language' quizzes, since there are elements of Latin in so many languages, it means there's less guesswork and more decoding, which is fun. I'd like to see a sequel. :)

	@cthulhu and shakescene: Deinde temporus Kirghiziam et Vaticana Urba addabo. (Next time I will add Kyrgyzstan and Vatican City) @micah, ProveIt, and joebobs: Gratias tibi ago. (Thank you)

	@cthulhu: Sorry I read your comment too fast. I thought that you were talking to me about adding Vatican City to the quiz.

	Funny, some of them are exact the same with the names in modern greek (dania, hispania, Iaponia, Iordania and others) :P

	You should do more that are not like their actual names - a notably good one to do would be Helvetia for Switzerland (it's still officially named the Confoederatio Helvetica in Latin on coins and stuff because there would be too many different languages to fit on if they tried to use the 4 languages native to the country...)

	34/40. Certamen magnus! (Only one year of Latin, sorry)

	Guinea Aequinoctialis non scivi. Exercitium tuum bonum est! Gratus sum quod exercitium tuum bonum fuit.
