	Similar to World Countries Border Blitz. Note that some countries considered islands appear because they are linked by bridges, etc. to other countries. Please let me know if you think there are any mistakes, and try to find the fewest number of entries required to make all the countries appear.

	Was typing "And" for Andorra and it gave me Botswana.

	I think walking to North Korea isn't as easy as this quiz makes it look.

	Fun quiz, but The Gambia should be under G, not T.

	Uzbekistan works, but doesn't show up in the list.

	The instructions make no sense. For instance, I'm in Denmark - I "can" walk to any other country in mainland Europe from here. I'm sure you, in your mind, see some difference between this and the border quiz that is the same concept, but I don't know what that difference is and the way you've worded the directions right now certainly don't articulate it.

	Not to mention, I also "can" walk to any country in mainland Asia as well. Really, every single country that's not an island and is in Europe or Asia should come up when I type any other country that fits the same criteria. If what you mean is countries that you can walk to while only crossing one border, you should say that, but then I don't see the difference between this and the borders quiz, except this allows for a very short list of tunnels and such.

	One difference with the borders blitz quiz is that islands are not included. An interesting challenge on that quiz is trying to finish it while entering as few countries as possible, but it becomes tedious to enter all the islands individually. The walking part is also significant: you can take a train from Denmark to Sweden over the Øresund Bridge; Saudi Arabia recently sent tanks into Bahrain across the King Fahd Causeway. The instructions say "Naming a country causes all countries that border it to appear..." I'll admit the title is awkward, but I figured people would figure out how it worked once they started playing. I would be happy to hear alternative title ideas.

	Uzbekistan is fixed

	Fixed for South Sudan. I believe the fewest number of entries required to finish the quiz is 34; that is, all countries that could physically be walked to from another country could be reached from at least one country out of a set of 34. See if you can finish the quiz using 34 or fewer countries.
