CJ (Allison Janney) refers to "Zaire" at a press conference, but the country changed its name to "Democratic Republic of the Congo" in 1997.
Besides the series always being in the off-years from the real presidential elections (the series' presidential elections are held in 2002 and 2006 and stated as such years), the inauguration ceremony/address/parade/balls are held on a Sunday. In reality, if January 20th falls on a Sunday, the president takes the oath of office as constitutionally required, but the ceremonies are held the next day. This happened in reality in 2013 with Barack Obama's second inaugural.
"Previously on the West Wing" spoken by C.J. (Allison Janney).
Inauguration Day is never on a Sunday. If the 20th of January falls on a Sunday, the president is sworn in, in private and the ceremony is held on the 21st. This is by tradition, having happened on at least 5 occasions in the country's history, the most recent in January 2012 when President Barack Obama was sworn-in in a private ceremony on Sunday and then a second time at the Inaugural ceremony on Monday.
Kuhndu is a made-up country.
Qumar is a fictional country.
According to Toby (Richard Schiff) his office is 63 feet from the Oval Office, so the Secret Service should come running into the room from the sound of Will (Joshua Malina) shattering a pane of glass.
