Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Molise — The tagline says 'created in 1963 from Abruzzo' but it was created from the division of the former region Abruzzi e Molise, not directly from Abruzzo alone.

Moscow Oblast — The easternmost longitude of Moscow Oblast is approximately 40° E, not 41° E as stated in the STATS section.

Moscow Oblast — The minimum temperature of -54°C was observed in Klin, not Naro-Fominsk.

Munster — The entry states 'There was Norman influence from the 14th century', but Norman influence in Munster began in the late 12th century, not the 14th.

Nord-Pas-de-Calais — The region was officially named 'Nord-Pas-de-Calais' from its creation in 1956, not renamed in 1972.

Nord-Pas-de-Calais — During the 19th century, Nord-Pas-de-Calais was itself the leading industrial region of France, not second to Alsace-Lorraine.

Normandy — The entry states that during antiquity the region formed part of Celtic Armorica, but only the western part of Normandy was considered part of Armorica; the eastern part was in Gallia Belgica or Lugdunensis.

Normandy — The entry states that Lugdunensis Secunda was incorporated into the Saxon Shore, but the Saxon Shore was a military district, not a civil province, and Normandy's coast was not formally part of that system.

North Brabant — The phrasing implies both Baarle-Hertog and Baarle-Nassau are enclaves on the border, but Baarle-Nassau is the Dutch municipality surrounding the Belgian enclave, not an enclave itself.

North Brabant — Catholics were still a majority in North Brabant as of 2010, so the claim that they were no longer a majority by that date is incorrect.

North Rhine-Westphalia — The entry states 'landlocked state', but North Rhine-Westphalia is not landlocked; it borders the Netherlands to the west.

North Rhine-Westphalia — The entry's description of the flag confuses the flag with the coat of arms and contains an incomplete/typo 'red ros'.

North Yorkshire — The entry states the River Ure/Ouse is the sixth-longest river in the United Kingdom, but it is actually the seventh-longest.
