The content was good, but the questions were overly trivial. The 'spaghetti tree' is trivia, the country you asked about is trivia about trivia. Some questions like #4, were well put. Let me say that this is more a commentary on the editors than this particular quiz. Never-the-less, let me express my gratitude to you, and all those who produce these quizzes!
