Not anymore :).
But seriously, Mongolia comes that early on in the list because it is in between two superpowers that are a) really large, and b) really well known. Mongolia turns green whenever either Russia or China are guessed, which appears to be 95% of the time.

I start with Indonesia, North Korea, Russia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the DRC. For South America, all you need to type in is Brazil and Peru. Honduras gets a lot of Latin America, than USA and Mexico. Then just choose countries located a short distance from each other in Africa, Europe and Asia.

In the instructions, it should not say that states "without borders" are not included - every state by definition must have borders, otherwise it would not be a state. It should say "states not sharing land borders with any other state". Natural borders and sea borders are still borders (: Thank you!

@Sifhraven, it is an island. It's somewhat analogous to Bahrain, which while an island shares a land border with Saudi Arabia on an island they share. The difference is that the border is less well demarcated--some claim it's on Pamban island at Dhanushkodi, some claim it's so far down the tip of that island that it is underwater except at low tide, and some claim it's across one of the many other islands in Adam's Bridge.

Speaking of, Bahrain really ought to be on this quiz.

Lots of fun! For beginners on this quiz: An example of strategy is that only three countries work for Liechtenstein--Liechtenstein, Austria and Switzerland. Of those three, Austria is by far the shortest and therefore fastest to type. Also, Tajikistan helps because of all the countries it borders. And Italy and Laos not just for the ones they border, but they are nice and short.

Totally, I thought the same thing. I got 139, but I'm not a good typer, so I'm satisfied with this score.

Replace Kenya and Eritrea by Ethiopia; since you take Congo as well, you catch Tanzania with the latter. Would be funny to find out the master list: What's the minimum of countries (and which) and what's the minimum of characters needed to solve the quiz successfully.

Great quiz. Just wondering, why is Sri Lanka included. To my knowledge it doesn't border any other countries.

It is actually considered a land border to India! This is because at times during low tide, you can walk straight from India to Sri Lanka, which means it's not an island at all times, so it is technically a land border to Indi! I know, cool, right?!

No, kinda stupid, it should have an official border, not a changing one

Sri Lanka is a island, and is not connected to india

It is considered a border to India because at certain points, you can walk to it during low tide, so it is not COMPLETELY cut off by water.

In the netherlands at low tide you can walk to the wadden islands, but noone would ever say they are connected to the mainland.

Can you find me an authorative source that states that sri lanka is not an island? Cause all I keep finding is that it is an island nation, which is seperated from india. (And that it was centuries ago that that landbridge was passable by foot. I am not sure if tides were taken into account, but you would think there would ve been mentions of it. Maybe if people have passed it, they didnt mind wading a bit?)

I am not entirely sure what the story is, but from what I understood Sri Lanka is of course an island country. The hypothetical border is on a small island (between continental India and the main Sri Lanka island) that is shared by the two countries and only appears during low tide.

If you search for if you can walk across, the answer consistently is NO, not since the 15th century (1480). Though a few bits of Adam's bridge/Rama setu are above water most of it isnt, and can be up to 10 meters below the surface.

the presence of a border doesn't necessarily mean you can walk from mainland India to Sri Lanka! You can't walk from Dublin to London but there is an Ireland-UK border

I too got the badge on untimed, and it says 157/157. Is that supposed to happen? I had read it in the comments. But forgot about it, I was doing the untimed map to work out a strategy. And suddenly the badge popped up.

might not make people happy but I think this calls for a reset, cause people will get the badge without effort.

I am still gonna try it timed now, I want to earn the badge and not it being handed to me.
