Great expansion on this outline quizzes. I’d recommend removing Hong Kong as it’s a Special Administrative Region and going with the JetPunk standard that India and Sri Lanka do not share a border.

Thank you for the quizz.

I think the time could be shorten.

For me, it's a bit counterintuitive to begin by the northwesternmost point and go clockwise. I would find more logical to begin by russia - north korea... and finish by the american continent OR let this begining and going counter clockwise.

I find it quit inconsistent as to what counts as a border. Is Singapore on this quiz because it has a bridge to Malaysia?, is Bahrain on here also? If that is the case, why is the bridge between Denmark and Sweden not counted?

I still enjoy this one. I see the borders in my mind as go down the coast. Of course, my guesses are still not perfect, and that's why the quiz has a continuing appeal. Also, it's fun to go to some of these coastal borders on Google Earth when there is a street view of them from both sides.
