      The title of your channel is dumb. The plural of 'quiz' is QUIZZES, not quizs
      Q5. Which COUNTRY'S flag is this? Countries is a plural term while country’s depicts possession

      40/40 - This quiz was obviously designed to catch out foreigners, especially Americans; (Hands up all Americans who answered "Big Ben" and "London Bridge"!
      A couple of nice questions that many people wouldn't get right (like Polish being the second most used language in the UK,) but also a couple of questions whose answer probably won't stand the test of time (like the population being 65 million, oh and Prince Charles is obviously wrong as of early September 2022!)
      The population question is one where you need to take into account when the quiz was set to get the correct answer - Population might have officially been 65 million sometime in 2021, but it currently (December 2022) stands nearer to 68 million (67,791,400) - you need to take an approximate guess to get that one right!)

    Northern Ireland doesn't have an official flag other than the Union Flag. The title of Charles Darwin's book is On the Origin of Species not The Origin of "the" Species. In full it's "On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life." Good quiz otherwise.

    It's just a tad off-putting that your title page contains the word "quizs". The plural of quiz is quizes. Q5. Not which countries flag, but which country's flag. Q 10, according to latest census, there are 850,000 Polish speakers in UK, but 990,000 Welsh speakers. Q 16, the tower is indeed Elizabeth Tower, but the building of which it is part is the Palace of Westminster. I gave up at this stage. Please do better.
