	Good quiz. What is Metropolitan France though? And the EU was established in 1993 with the Maastricht treaty, I imagine you mean the EC

	I've seen Metropolitan France used (possibly just on Sporcle, though, I'm not sure) to mean the bit that most people think of as France, i.e ignoring its overseas departments / territories like French Guiana etc... I'm probably being dim but what does 'used by 327 europeans" mean next to the currency? 327? ;)

	Could you accept "Beethoven's Ninth Symphony" or just "Beethoven's Ninth" for the EU anthem? Or do you feel that that would be incorrect?

	So the Caspian Sea Shore is lower than the Caspian Sea? Interesting. And seemingly impossible.

	You should accept Blue and Yellow for both of the flag color answers. Yes Metropolitan France is France without its departments and territories the country has outside of Europe. Overall, nice quiz.

	@Hazl: Accepting 'Beethoven's Ninth Symphony' etc. wouldn't be completely correct, as it's only the final movement that's included. However if it's going to be a reasonably popular choice of answer, I'll make sure it's accepted. BCSwede: The Caspian Sea Shore is the lowest point on the surface... seeing as the answer would remain the same, I'll add the depth of the sea itself into the extra information.

	@cscholes No, exactly the opposite. It was known as the EC until 1993, when it became the EU.

	Please accept "Christian" for Christianity.

	@WeaselKing1000 Isn't that exactly what I've said?

	Why isn't the Latin version of the Motto accepted? I got stuck on that for ages...

	Or can you at least accept "unity in diversity" as well? There has to be a reason that's the most missed question, despite being one of the easiest.

	If all of Russia is counted for area, shouldn't all of France be counted? Not that it matters for the rank, but excluding non-European French area while including non-European Russian area is odd. (for your area listings you can get the superscript 2 using html code < - sup - > 2 < - /sup - > -take out the hyphens)

	@cscholes Yes, sorry! :O
