Good quiz, but you need to decide whether y is a vowel or not. If Seychelles has only one vowel, then so should Myanmar, no?

Not necessarily. The y in Seychelles is clearly a consonant, while in Myanmar it's a wovel. It's all about the pronounciation.

@krushr. As cuendillar said, y functions as a consonant in Seychelles but as a vowel in Myanmar.

maybe include the y words as bonus answers and then you'd have a way to include kyrgyzstan :-)

I was trying to figure how are there so many countries with only 1 vowel in it... then figured out can have multiple of that 1 vowel! (reading, the directions would help too I suppose!)

Beat me to it. It's a great quiz, spoiled only by the 'y' factor. For me, the only vowels are a,e,i,o,u and Myanmar etc should be on the list. But I think Sporclers think differently so I'll have to concede to the general concensus on this one.

Couldn't Thailand and Jamaica also count, as the 'i' functions as a consonant? Though I suppose that would be too provocative.

I always forget Kosovo. Good quiz.
