         | It's strange that you mix the flags from provinces. Here in
         | Argentina each province has a flag, but we don't care about
         | them. They are used in some official ceremonies and buildings,
         | but everyone else just ignore them. I really expect that nobody
         | elsewhere in the world cares about the flags of the provinces
         | of Argentina.
         | 
         | [spoiler alert] I tried choosing as the cue the currency code.
         | It should give probably the initial letter of the country and
         | perhaps a good idea of the rest. But today, it not as helpful
         | as I expected. :(

           | Thanks for your feedback gus_massa! Yes -- I think that EUR
           | for today's one wouldn't have helped much, but the
           | region/sub-region might have :-)
           | 
           | You raise a good point around province flags -- I was
           | planning to add more and more states/provinces (i.e. from
           | Brazil and Span) -- currently have 305 flags -- if we want
           | this game to last for a few years :-D

             | Perhaps a normal version with countries and territories,
             | and an extended version for hard core users with flags of
             | provinces.
             | 
             | Which currency do you show for a province? (Like 25 years
             | ago we had a big economical mess here and each province had
             | their own currency. It was solved after and even bigger
             | economical mess. Now we are somewhat stable and with only
             | one currency for the whole country.)

               | I like the idea about beginner/intermediate/hard -- good

         | Thanks kleer001, I haven't yet -- I tried the other day but
         | didn't know how "best" to post without it being obscured in the

         | post if you like? :-))
