The seventh question makes a false assumption. Although Spain colonised most of the rest of South America, it did not colonise all of it. France had French Guiana, Netherlands the ABC islands and UK Trinidad. The Falklands were held by Spain for a few decades before they abandoned it and the British later took it over.

Ah. Forgot about French guinea, but I won’t put it in because it’s to obvious. I will make a question about the falklands. But what bothers me about your comment is that you consider Trinidad and the abc islands to be part of South America. On Jetpunk, it’s mainland South America, French guinea, and the Falkland Islands.
