I changed this from triples to doubles. Thought triples might be a little tough. Sorry for any confusion. Also, there was one country I wasn't sure who to pair with: United States (of America), which could be paired with either United Arab Emirates or Uganda, depending on the name used, so I left it off. Thanks for playing.

@Newtoni East Timor is officially Timor-Leste, but I added it as a bonus.

Good quiz. Really hard to keep the spare answers in your head when you think of one for each letter first!

wow, what a great quiz! i wasted a significant amount of time wondering why Sudan, Switzerland didn't work. once i figured out my stupidity on that one i spent another 30 seconds stumped as to why Sweden, Switzerland wouldn't work. apparently i need more coffee.

@xcdannon Actually, that isn't a unique double. Other M...A's are Malaysia, Mauritania, Micronesia, Moldova, and Mongolia.

@marpocky As I mentioned above, United States (of America) could be paired with either United Arab Emirates or Uganda, depending on which name you use. Both are used about equally on Sporcle so I decided to just omit it from the quiz.

Don't know if you care, but you've got 'T...O' and 'S...D' out of order alphabetically.

Surprisingly tough. Knew at least one of the pair in all cases but couldn't always figure out the second.

I like the idea though personally, I'd prefer if you could get credit for at least one of the doubles.

I'm pretty sure Tajikistan and Turkmenistan are not on here because there is also Taiwan that starts with t and ends in n.

@yocoy: I believe East Timor is the English version of the country officially known as Timor Leste.

Wow! That was tough! I tried twice and still didn't get them all, though I did improve. The two I missed I had half of the answer. Amazing how hard this was. Great quiz!

Isn't it strange how you see J...N and immediately think 'Jordan' but then take a minute to think of 'Japan'! Surprisingly tough, I know my countries but just couldn't think of the second in most cases.

Like others I had the problem where I could think of one very quickly for just about all of them, but not the second one. However, probably thanks to Sporcle, it was generally the obscure one I got quickly... eg I got Palau but completely blanked on Peru.

great quiz idea! An issue with triples and bonuses (East Timor)@the_luggage: I have a close family member named Jordan. I only got Japan.
