I'm not a native English speaker, but I believe there is a contradiction in the instructions:

Consider the South-America-column. By C.), there are four South American countries, and two non-South American countries. By D.), they have to be all connected, so necessarily the non-South American countries are Panama and Costa Rica, and one of the South American countries is Colombia. But now we have two countries starting with C.

column C has 4 countries and they all are from the same continent. I don't understand why you say 'and two non-South American countries'
