12/15 but I got the one with Maths right. ?
You did great 🙂 I had fun doing this quiz again myself now, as I had quite forgotten it!
Hehe, I hope you don’t mind I take these “old” quizzes. ?
I love that you do!
i love these writings!! and photos china jaopan
Only 8 correct but learned a lot as always!
You still earned a pass! Thanks for taking this old quiz, Carol 🙂
As I said-not so easy. They are too far from me 🙂 Anyway, I enjoyed 🙂 Thanks again 🙂
Thanks for playing, Milena! They can’t all be easy peasy 🙂
Haha 🙂 Yes, you’re right ! Thank you for teaching me something and you’re welcome ! You are from England, aren’t you? If so, try to do my quizzes about the US 🙂
Okay I will, but I’m from Ireland 🙂
Oh, sorry, I thought you’re from England 🙂 Anyway, I was so close 🙂 You’re not from America, that’s what I meant 🙂
And thank you for your interesting about my work 🙂
14/15 . Got the maths wrong. Our Prime Minister has offended Xi Jinping so we see his face on TV a bit.
Among the strongest men in the world and getting stronger. Multiplication by 0 caught you out? 🙂
You got 11 out of 15 right!
Great
Two very silly mistakes where i should have clicked Both but chose Japan. Excellent quiz as always.
‘Both’ reliably catches the impatient and the over-confident (not that I’m calling you either 😀 ). Well done as always.
got 13 out of 15 right!
Well done, Edith! Excellent score ☺
I got 11 of 15… can’t understand #14
Hi Paul. There were 3 problems with the quiz when I published it on Saturday. Support have fixed 2 of the problems. I’m still waiting for them to fix #14, where the first answer option should be 0 (zero)
Questions #14 & #16 have problems.
Thanks for the heads-up, Gary. I asked support to fix it at the weekend…
13/16 and of course I had two “both” wrong just because I wasn’t patient enough to read. 😀
Oh, Ellie! When will you learn patience, girl?! 😀 (But you did well!)
I got 14. Despite 14 and 16 defectives, only 14 give me problems (in guessing).
14 out of 16. Nice Quiz.!
14/16 – I can see where you had problems! I assumed that you meant 0 for Yes, so that was my answer. The option of “Both” was interesting for some of the questions – number 8 for example!
Well it’s not unfeasible: think Mrs. May with England and Wales. And yes, this published before I’d finished editing it 😮
13 out of 16 but i dont understand nos. 14 and 16
Well done! 16 shouldn’t be there and 14’s first option should be 0. The quiz somehow posted itself before I finished editing it. I’ve asked support to fix it.
Got 7/16…haha nice quiz Norman… 🙂
Very interesting, with some leaving me quite curious. Enjoyed the comparison quiz.
Ten out of sixteen in this quiz.
I only missed one, however it seems to me that questions 14 &16 are flawed
Well done! You are correct, Alex. I wasn’t finished editing the quiz and when I clicked preview it somehow published. I’ve requested support to delete the last question and fix the other one (where the first option should be 0)
In which case, perfect score
12 out of 16 is not so bad. I always thought I couldn’t distinguish ethnic groups in Asia.
Oh you did very well, then! Thanks for playing 🙂
