Good idea. Can I argue for Greece and Trinidad and Tobago? There are several Greek islands very close to Anatolia, such as Rhodes and Lesbos and other smaller ones which should surely rank as Asian.

Whilst Tobago classifies as Caribbean (and therefore N American) by Geographical position as well as its native flora and fauna, by the same measures, Trinidad should, IMO, be counted as S American.

Finally, you might wish to indicate in the instructions that you are ignoring Antarctic claims.

Great suggestion! Greece is now accepted. As for Trinidad and Tobago, there is a controversy about which continent it belongs in, but I would not count it as a transcontinental country. Same with Cyprus and Armenia, who are both located entirely in Asia but have strong cultural and historical ties with Europe.
