this makes no sense - it asks to name the hottest and coldest temperatures, but lists countries in the answer column

Should really be titled "Extreme temperature" rather than "Extreme weather".

It's so nice to see Greenland included as part of North America! But I agree that Denmark should be accepted as an alternative answer, as it is the actual country.

Yes, I tried Denmark but it never occurred to me to try Greenland, since it wasn't a country. Pretty interesting quiz, though, not all the answers were obvious.

Greenland is considered a country, it has a similar relationship with Denmark just as Australia does with the UK.

even if it's considered a country by some people all the published quizzes on sporcle say it's not, so you should probably change that

@regrettedname: Greenland's relationship with Denmark is not comparable with the Australia's relationship with the UK.

As Greenland never officially stated their independence, they are not a country. Learn something about geography or politics.
