"Possessions" sounds a bit strange - wouldn't exclaves (or are they enclaves) be better?

No one has adequately explained why South Africa doesn't work for #18.

The question is: "Its name describes its geographical position on the continent." CAR works (as it is in the center of the continent), but SA also works (as it is at the very south of the continent).

The responses, when asked why SA doesn't work, are: "South African borders neither Chad nor the DRC whereas the CAR does"... or simply "no." These are not sufficient explanations.

Does anyone have an adequate explanation?

Seriously? It has most definitely been explained. Maybe we should all just let you think about why South Africa doesn't work in THAT location on THIS quiz, centralized entirely between 17 and 19.

you should accept "Australia" as an answer for the question about a country named after their geographical location in the world ( it's derived from the Latin Terra Australis which means “southern land”)
