Good quiz! I got tripped up by South Africa and Zimbabwe and ended up missing 8 total. That number probably would’ve been 41 if Bolivia hadn’t been cut down! Out of curiosity, how come the sign languages were omitted? KSL and PNGSL share the same status as Korean and Tok Pisin in their respective countries, from what I understand.
