That is a good way to learn the capitals of many countries. I liked your game. It took me a lot of practice.

About the other way around:
I haven't gotten any further than thinking about it, but I plan to create it whenever I get the time, probably sometime within this week.
About CIA wfb:
It has a lot of facts but it is always possible that it is affected by US foreign affairs. I'm not saying that it is so in this case but maybe Wikipedia is more neutral? I really don't know myself, just a thought...

ok, I always doublecheck it with: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/index.html
Do you also have the game the other way round: Q: What is the capital of... ?

I followed this list:

I guess Taiwan is disputed as well but I think I will keep them for now, if I am to change the background I will have to remake the whole game.

Palestinie is not yet official and it is a bit confusing having Jerusalem in both games with different answers. In other words, I would take Palestine out for the moment.

I can't remember how my thoughts were when I created this game, sorry. I don't want to change it at the moment, adding one more dot means I will have to reset all the player statistics.

Comment given by niklas
I woldn't call it misstakes, Wikipedia says:
'The town is also referred to by its more official name of Reggio nell'Emilia' and 'Reggio di Calabria (Calabria: Rìggiu, Greek-Calabrian: Righi, Greek: Rhèghion), commonly known as Reggio Calabria or Reggio', but I think the versions you mention are more used in common parlour and will change it.

pretty good! only 2 mistakes: it's Reggio Emila instead of Reggio Nell'emilia n Reggio Calabria insted of Reggio Di Calabria...

Comment given by niklas
I think it is the old problem of city vs metro population.
According to http://www.citypopulation.de/USA-Cities.html Newark has approx. 280' inhabitants (city size) and Trenton metro area has approx. 370' inhabitants according to http://www.citypopulation.de/USA-Metro.html.
I guess Newark is a part of NY metro area since there is no separate listing of a Newark metro area.
