Five Smallest Countries by Continent

And Lebanon (10,452 km²) too, but with Cyprus it won't fit the list. The quiz could also do with a bit less time, now there's plenty of time to type in random countries.

And Cyprus is also in Europe... It's closer to Asian countries physically, but closer to European countries culturally.

Oh DO go on! I've never heard such an argument!

It is in Europe, uses euro, is in the E.U, and just because it is close to Asian countries doesnt mean its in Asia. Its also in the Medditeranian ocean( i dont know how to spell it).

But it's bigger than Malta...

Is Trinidad and Tobago included in North America ?

I'm pretty sure not a lot of people recognize Trinidad and Tobago as South American

Trinidad & Tobago should be considered in North America, and it does in all the quizzes here.

Trinidad is South America, where Tobago is in North America. Similarly Aruba, Curacao and Bonaire are all South American islands. The convention is to lump all islands into North America, but that doesn't make it right. Considering how on JetPunk we tend to use Wikipedia as a source and consistently state that where the largest and/or most important part of the country is located is determining the continent (Turkey - Asia, Egypt - Africa, but Russia / Europe). As Trinidad is the most important part it's an easy case to make to classify the country as South American.

Oh good. An argument over what continent a small island belongs to and it's not Cyprus.

At least it’s new.

they are much bigger than the 5 island countries in Africa.

Geologically, Malta is in Africa. But all quizzes count it as European. So don't hope for too much consistency.

Cyprus is part of Mars, case closed, now shut up.

did not know that malta was smaller than Andorra and that cyprus was smaller than qatar or kuwait

So? So is Liechtenstein.

I didn’t know that cyprus is smaller than east timor

5th smallest country in South America is bigger than 5th biggest country in Europe :)

GREAT!

East Timor?

Cool Quiz

East Timor is generally considered to be part of Asia, thus it should be on the list in place of Cyprus. Nice quiz.

467 sq/km

Has anyone done a version of this quiz that includes only countries on the continental mainland? (I realize that excludes all Oceania countries except Australia.) Seems that it would be interesting to see the five smallest continental African countries for instance, rather than just remember the island countries included in Africa that aren't Madagascar. South America would (of course) change the least. But all the others would be totally different, except for Europe, which would only have one change.

so many people are so mad because cyprus is in asia

Because it simply isn't, I don't really care but these people want perfect scores on the quizzes to help them feel knowledgeable.

How come my Countries that Beat Tuvalu quiz doesn't show up in search results? Is it too new?

No east timor??

Cyprus is in Europe
