MrAT : Wow, great set! Thanks for putting this up. One point: Quizlet's accent box doesn't have the å for Guam's capital Hagåtña. On a Mac keyboard, you can make the å by hitting option+a, and in Unicode U+030A makes the 'ring above' diacritic. (Not a kroužek in this case-- I'm not sure what it's called, other than a ring.)
MrAT : Oh, and actually, Palau changed its capital from Koror to Melekeok in October 2006. I'm also not sure about including Transnistria... I love all of the islands and territories being included, though! (There are even more, however, such as Saint Pierre and Miquelon, the other Isles Espersa usually included with Reunion, the Spratly Islands, etc.) Anyway, this is a really good set!
Shrill : Thanks MrAT, updated Hagåtña, changed to just Hagatna, and changed Palau's capital to Melekeok.
Shrill : added: Aland,Mayotte,Montserrat,Saint Martin,Saint-Pierre and Miquelon,Saint-Barthelemy and Svalbard.
