	Please get your facts right. Belgian Congo and Zaire are both names for the present DRC. Rep Congo was known as Middle Congo prior to its independence.

	Zaire is Democratic Republic of the Congo. And the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia, are not former names of countries, they are former countries that don't exist any more and split into many different countries, so they shouldn't even be there.

	Two minor errors (compared with the above): "New Hebrides" and "Portuguese" are misspelled. And it's obvious that the former Soviet Union isn't equivalent to present Russia; if it was a union it must have had at least two members (in fact, they were 15).

	Czechoslovakia doesn't exist anymore, so why would it have a new name? Same with Yugoslavia.

	Greatly improved. Now only a detail remains: the present Czech Republic includes not only the territory of the former Bohemia, but also that of Moravia. I think it would be better to show "Bohemia and Moravia" as the hint.
