You use 'bor' when you talk about dwelling, staying somewhere, and 'lever' if someone is alive, he/she exists. Anyone correct me if I'm wrong.

You are right. The same as German "leben" and "wohnen".

So... "He resides in Denmark" or "He inhabits Denmark" should not be marked incorrect, right?

Why is Danmark capitalised here, but sometimes not elsewhere?
