These are my first quizzes, do not hesitate to give constructive criticisms if you want to help me :)
Although you seemed to have forgotten the Anglo-Spanish border at Gibraltar
But:
- "Don Quijote" (Spanish spelling) should be a type-in for "Don Quixote"
- "Duero" (Spanish name for the river) should be a type-in for "Douro" (this one, which is often used in English, is the Portuguese name)
- "Gernika" should be also accepted for "Guernica", since it's the name of a town in the Basque Country, and the first is the basque name while the second is the Spanish name
If you need any help translating, just let me know.
