	Good quiz, really enjoyable!

	Someone will eventually say this but France could be acceptable for the South America blank on 10. (I'm just kidding; please don't vote this down; I just wanted to say it; God).

	NorwegianSalmon:	Oct 29th, 2010 at 22:00 GMT	6 points
	I know that, but I eventually decided on not including it, and used the countries per continent as used in Sporcle's continent quizzes (that is, the only countries to be possible to use on multiple continents are Turkey and Russia).

	bsd987:	Oct 29th, 2010 at 22:05 GMT	5 points
	Okay, I'm assuming you use the CIA World Factbook as your source, but it's wrong on one major account. Botswana should not be accepted for 3; it is four. It shares a border with Zimbabwe, South Africa, Namibia, and Zambia. The border with Zambia is about a kilometer long (and is entirely along the Zambezi River), but the countries do border each other and river borders are generally considered land borders.

	Thank you. Botswana has been moved to 4 borders instead.

	Fun! 5 stars and a nomination! I can't believe I didn't think to retype "Russia" for Europe under "14 borders" after getting it correct for Asia.

	Doesn't Spain also have a border with the UK at Gibraltar, hence should have five borders?

	NorwegianSalmon:	Nov 12th, 2010 at 23:00 GMT	4 points
	The instructions state that territories are not counted. Gibraltar has that status.
