Countries Bordering Turkey

Love this quiz its great and really mindbobling!!! weird that im going ton turkey tomorrow!! 8/8

You make good quizzes Sonko!

Probably you should add Cyprus, because the northern part of the island is turkish, or under turkish dominion. But it was fun!

and officially, the north didn't join Turkey but declared independence, which Turkey recognized

You shouldn't, The "Turkish part" is separated by the UN Buffer zone.

I'm going to Turkey 6/9/15.

Azerbaijan does not border Turkey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it does, zoom in on the little western part

Yes it does, for about 8 km along the Aras river.

Plattitude is right. The Nakhchivan exclave of Azerbaijan is southwest of Armenia. It has a tiny border with Turkey at the Aras River.

Actually, it's an exclave.

It's not universally recognized to be part of Azerbaijan.

^ yeah, Armenians aren't awfully happy about it, but that's it

The Caspian Sea is connected to ocean. It has become a true sea once more! Rejoice!

well Cyprus does border Northern Cyprus which is basically an extension of Turkey. Convenient place for them to keep most of their casinos and brothels.

But Northern Cyprus declared independence. It's not like it became a province of Turkey.

Quizzes would become awfully complicated if we included all cases like this. Of course de facto Northern Cyprus is very closely linked to Turkey, but nobody recognizes it as such, not even themselves. The same with Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Nagorno Karabakh, but unlike Crimea for example.

Gamer: that's not really what happened, though. In the 1970s Greek partisans attempted to annex Cyprus to Greece. In response, Turkey invaded Northern Cyprus and expelled Greeks from that part of the island. Currently, Turkey is the *only* country in the world that recognizes Northern Cyprus. The "country" is entirely dependent on Turkey for its economy and military and is essentially a puppet satellite state of Turkey. The United Nations considers Northern Cyprus to be a part of the Republic of Cyprus under Turkish occupation.

I did it with 1:45 left.

Nice quiz! On my big OE (overseas experience) from NZ, Turkey was may favourite country.

Sonko, I wonder what Kalbahamut's problem is with you. In almost every quiz that you have created he is criticising you and the quiz. Vreselijk kinderachtig als je het mij vraagt.

What do you mean "every quiz"? Kal has commented on 4 quizzes out of 21 Sonko has created. That's 19% of all his quizzes, so no Kalbahamut hasn't commented on 'almost all of Sonko's quizzes'. Unless commenting on 4 quizzes equals 'almost all of Sonko's quizzes', which then seems quite ridiculous.

I haven't seen a single comment of his on this quiz that criticizes either the quiz or the quiz creator. Unless it was already removed in the time since you've left this comment, but even then, I highly doubt he would make a criticism without a given reason.

i love these bordering quizzes where they are underwater :)

Maybe one day Kurdistan...

Weird how bulgaria is guessed less than azerbaijan

I do link armenia and georgia. But azerbaijan is stored with the stans in my mind :)

here today as "punishment" for forgetting turkey in the quiz countries with most amount of countries within 100km (I think I missed it with the 200km aswell)

btw bulgaria is still low ;)

@sonko don't get offended, this is not critisism towards you, but to the Quizmaster

what i want to say is, that i cannot fully understand how so many boring quizzes can be featured, where you only need to know the locations of huge countries on the world map, yet great quizzes, I'm not saying mine are so brill, but there are definitely some that are more engaging than well quizzes like this one or basically all of Jerry928's quizzes, which are simply the closest countries to every damn country on the planet

Good quiz

Loved it
