All one had to do is count the length and vowels in the answers!

Player Dennis, but it isn't a vowel

Well, Yeah! If we don’t count “y”!

No need for all the blank lines between sentences - one space is more than enough

Tabitha Hammer, if "Y" is a vowel, then Egypt contains 2 vowels. Not 1 as asked.
But y is not a vowel.

Danger, As well you should. Are you trying to instigate Armageddon? Begone and consider thy ways!!
Louella Wilson
Bob Gorby, and we don't because? It's not a vowel?
Danger
How in the world did this question pass the review process. I get rejected for a misplaced comma. 🤦♀️
Tabitha Hammer
“Y” is being used as a vowel in Kyrgyzstan and Egypt. Therefore, Egypt is the correct answer!
(aeiou and sometimes y)

Silvia Levame, hmmm. When I spell Switzerland, I use 3 vowels.
Stephen W. Gerrard
That was so obvious! How did 16% get it wrong!!
Charles Noll
Y is a vowel when used this way, so your answer is wrong
