Swidnice and Povoa de Varzim didn’t work for me. They may be spelled wrong.

fixed Povoa – not seeing Swidnice listed as one, maybe it was recently added since I made the quiz, or a former FUA?

Birmingham should probably be accepted for West Midlands, and “Lisbon” as an alt spelling to “Lisboa.” Couldn’t get Ljubljana either, not sure if I had misspelled it twice or if I’m missing an alt spelling?

fixed Lisbon and the Slovenian ones. Leaving West Midlands as that is the name of the county area, the area is not just Birmingham.
