5 globes for the comment about Kyrgyzstan. Although I have to admit, the comment prompted me to type in Kyrgyzstan to see if the quiz would call me names, revealing a masochistic tendency I didn't know I had.

That's a whole lotta Guineas! Guam would be a nice bonus answer!

Every time I think of the three African Guinea's, I forget Papua new Guinea. Every time. Weird.

I got three, and that's only thanks to people's lack of imagination when naming places.

Wow, nearly 20% of people got Guinea but not the other countries with "Guinea" in their name? Peculiar.

Missed four of them. Which four? The goddamn four with Guinea in their name. 'GU' in Guinea sounds different to 'GU' in Guatemala and Antigua and Paraguay. Its not the GWA sound I was thinking of. Thats my excuse anyway!

I kept thinking Portugal! Portugal! and once I realized I was inverting the u and g, I couldn't wrap my mind around anything else. Drat.

The first country that came to mind was Guatemala, and then going from there geographically, I realized I was on a roll. With the exception of the four Guineas, all are in the Americas. It seems the "gu" combination is relatively common in Spanish.

@ superball: actually, all those GU-containing country names in the Americas come from Native languages (except for Antigua & Barbuda).

@cntower: Your average negative score on comments makes me think you are just trolling with that comment....but just in case you might not know and want to learn: "French Guiana" is not a country, the country is 'France', which seem to lack the important 'gu' combination that this quiz demands.

dart, I missed nicaragua, I had like 1 minute to think about it, but I kept thinking in african countries. @daHOOK, it's as silent as the u in guatemala, nicaragua, uruguay and paraguay. At least in spanish, they should be silent, unless you use the ΓΌ. u r gay should be a good bonus answer

What about all those other African countries like Gumbia, The Gubon, Ugunda, and Angula. Oh and elsewhere I also thought of Arguntina, Portugul, and even Gumbodia. Okay, okay - just kidding. More eggnog please...

@marceloOrigoni: the u's in Uruguay, Guatemala, Paraguay, and Nicaragua are not silent. No umlaut is needed on the u to cause it to be pronounced when it is followed by 'a' or 'o' or consonants.
