It would suck if any of these pairs go to war with each other. Well, maybe not the Vatican. It'd be amusing to see the pope go to war.

Kosovo's should be full answers, not bonus answers, by Sporcle convention.

When I type "democratic republic of the congo republic of the congo" it won't accept (leaving the "the"'s away or replacing by drc won't work either)...?

OK, the much shorter "congo congo" works though... Still it would be good if the official names were accepted as well.

The Congos are a serious problem, took me quite a few minutes to get them. Then I tried Helsinki (FIN)-Tallinn (EST) 82km... ooops, bordering... well, they're not. And it's me who always tells people to read instructions.
