The two kingdoms separated less than amicably over a series of conflicts spanning over a hundred years (1337-1453), known today as the Hundred Years War.
French Guiana being part of France and placed closer to the equator than anywhere in Europe allows the European Space Agency to have a very useful launch site. It accounts for about 18% of the region's GDP and so they are unlikely to just give that up.
I know these wouldn’t be put as normal answers, but could you put a little bonus section with UK (Gibraltar through Spain) and Morocco (Ceuta and Mellila also through Spain)
They would be on any other quiz, especially if we’re using French Guiana to make a connection with South America. Spain has land borders with both the UK and Morocco, so should be included.
Netherlands shouldn't be in the list. Saint Martin island is shared with France. Saw someone pointed it out and another user made it clear; but it should be at least the same way Morocco is (which, btw, Morocco shouldn't have that interrogation mark).
Instead of quibbling, try to understand why we've made the choices we have. There is no way to satisfy everyone. Also, we make extraordinary efforts to remain consistent on all our featured quizzes.
The countries by borders quiz includes the Spanish/Moroccan border, so I think it has a decent bit of precedence. That's unlike the Spain/Gibraltar border, which is hardly ever present on Jetpunk.
Quick reminder that all of the Spanish regions are classified as "autonomous communities".
Not Algeria though.
