Nice quiz! Didn't expect South Africa to have a higher population than South Korea. Maybe add that "Burma " is not an acceptable answer? Otherwise it would beat Burkina Faso.
It was Burma for a long time on this site. Only recently has Jetpunk recognized it's sovereignty. And these days, Jetpunk holds about as much water to me as the UN.
I think once I reach the point where I start guessing lesser-known countries instead of the actual answers, that might be the sign that I'm on JetPunk too much.
Benin is over half the size of Belarus, but more importantly, Benin (and most of Africa) is rapidly growing in population whereas Belarus is even shrinking.
happy holidays y'all!

And how did Nigeria apparently gain 40 million people in about 5 years?
