	I think you should change the spacing so the countries column is narrower and the notes are wider. Nice trivia!

	Many sources say that San Marino is the world's oldest sovereign state, so you may want to add that as an alternate answer or make a distinction between "unofficially oldest" and "oldest on record." Several countries could also fit the criteria of being almost entirely treeless or covered in jungle, so specify more. 'Educated' in quotes also looks really wrong (makes it look like you're disagreeing with the source material or slamming Canadians).

	I would have liked it better if the answers didn't have to be guessed in order. But there's a lot of interesting facts here.

	kathleenicus: There are several countries that appear twice so I decided guessing in order made more sense. Glad you found it interesting none the less.

	Thanks for the feedback. I've made the third column larger, San Marino is now accepted and the distinction for education has been changed to formal education, as well as the Almost treeless question has been replaced with a clearer fact from the source. This was all originally form the source but I will change it in order to be more Sporcle friendly :) If anyone else has some feedback, feel free to let me know.

	I like the idea, but I think some things can still be improved. The jungle question has to be rephrased to something like: has the highest jungle/forest percentage. As it is, a number of other countries would qualify. The natural flowing water question could, as far as I can see, also apply to for instance Yemen and UAE. The most likely to disappear beneath the waves question is probably also debatable, as the Maldives might have the lowest highest points, but rising sea levels are not the same everywhere (for instance due to King Tide and El niña phenomena in the Pacific), meaning that perhaps Tuvalu might qualify better for that feat.

	nice quiz but I also contest some of the answers. Does the vatican have running water? I would also think that monaco would have a very high education rate for its citizens or are they also just socialites and racing drivers. i also think you should highlight whether the answer is a % or the overall highest number.

	"Has most of its citizens living abroad"...no apostraphe in "it's".

	Thanks guys and girls, I've changed a few things to avoid any confusion. megascarp, No the vatican doesn't have running water, I believe they get their holy water form outside the country. According to the source, Canada has the highest post secondary education at 50% the other 50% are hockey players and eskimos. Enjoy.
