	Just like in the Largest Islands of the World quiz, mainland Australia is regarded as a continent rather than an island.

	Nice quiz! I'm embarrassed to have missed Hawaii. I would support adding an island nation to the list, just for giggles. The largest island in Madagascar is ... Madagascar.

	Good quiz. The choice of countries (a lot being ignored in usual quiz on islands) is challenging, thus interesting. A few other countries could be added.

	Greenland is a Danish territory, but it is not part of Denmark.

	Greenland is a constituent country in the Kingdom of Denmark, and is represented in the parliament of Denmark.

	For the third column, could you add square miles? I'm curious to see just how large an Amazon Delta island can be. Also, some small multi-island nations like Micronesia or Solomon Islands should be added.

	Oh...Hawaii...right.

	Added areas in the 3rd column. Replaced India by Fiji because I couldn't find a reliable answer to which Andaman island was actually the largest.

	Dammit. I tried every spelling of Sealand in Danish and English I could think of and totally forgot about Greenland. I also was very proud of myself for remembering all of the Waddeneilanden as well as the Netherlands Antilles, and was confused when NONE of them were right.
