Based on http://www.sporcle.com/games/miko/bordercountries This is a new up-to-date version. Let me know of any glitches or thoughts and I will update as necessary.

Just a pointer - Perhaps make it 2 columns and use brighter colours. Use abbreviations such as: DRC and Dem Rep Congo for Democratic Republic of Congo... Rep Congo for Republic of Congo and CAR for Central African Republic. Also - Replace 'Burma' with Myanmar. Myanmar is what is accepted and most well known and used on Sporcle. Although do 'Myanmar/Burma' so people can still guess with Burma.

You got the count right for Brazil, but left off France. The French count should be one higher since you missed Brazil there.

Not counting French Guiana as a country as it's an overseas region of France. As a result I've reduced Brazil's count by one though. Thanks!

@QuizzleMyShizzle - Yes, it's an overseas region of France, but it is still an integral part of the French state. That would be like saying UK doesn't border Ireland because Northern Ireland isn't part of Great Britain. Sporcle standard is to count Brazil and France as bordering nations.

Also, Kyrgyzstan needs to be a bonus answer, not an official answer. Put "ee" in the third column in the data to make it a bonus answer.

@bsd987 Thanks again for the feedback, much appreciated. I'll update the Brazil and France answers, just wasn't sure of the correct protocol.

To Fix: Sudan only has 7 neighbors, since July 9th. South Sudan has 6. Thanks.

@Benja5666. Well spotted! Thought I'd updated all the borders correctly to include South Sudan but totally forgot to change Sudan itself. D'oh!! Thanks!

Good quiz. I think you should be accepting Spain though - France, Andorra, Portugal, GB, Morocco.
