	Fair enough, though some of these meet that definition as well (Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and to an extent, Iceland). I'll change the name to better fit that

	Transcontinental is the right word, don't worry. I've seen this done a few times but I think this is the most inclusive quiz I've seen. The only country that isn't on here that I've seen on a few lists is Panama as some say the Canal is the division between North and South America while most say that man-made structures should not be a determining factor. Bonus maybe? Excellent job!

	@Riko: just added Panama as a bonus. I wanted to avoid the controversy over where to draw the border between North and South America, so I just stuck with the Darien Gap definition, but it definitely merits a bonus based on the Panama Canal definition

	Just a little nitpicking on a very good quiz: Chile currently has Colombia's area specification.

	It's funny how Iceland is in both Europe and North America since it is about halfway split between the North American Plate and the Eurasian Plate. However, Iceland is often forgotten to be part of North America since it is usually considered to be a part of Europe and the European Union. Great quiz!

	This quiz already exists many, many times. It's probably one of the most regularly remade quizzes. Jam1 recently did one which was pretty definitive: http://www.sporcle.com/games/Jam1/transcontinental

	@joebobs: After I made this, and before I published it, I looked through to see if any were already made. I found them, and all were incomplete, so I continued to publish it. @cuendillar: fixed it

	The explanation for the UK doesn't include the part in Oceania, the Pitcairn Islands. Otherwise, I'd say this is by far the best version of this quiz that I've seen.

	what does it mean Antarctic Territorial Claims Suspended, does that mean certain countries have been kicked out of Antarctica? if that's true who is kicking them out? some secret Antarctican government all of a sudden

	TJL:	Jan 28th, 2011 at 08:01 GMT		2 points
	@Patteroast: Fixed it now. Don't know how I overlooked that. @samcash13593: The Antarctic Treaty suspended any territorial claims below 60 S, setting it aside as a research area. The only claims still valid are the ones above 60 S, all islands, but all still considered Antarctic. That's why Norway, France, Australia, and the UK are still technically on Antarctica

	I personally don't think the Antarctic Territorial Claims should be legitimized for the purposes of this quiz.

	@Mistakenblood: they aren't; they're just bonuses. The countries I count as being on Antartica have legitimate claims (all islands) that can be characterized as Antarctic, which are closest to Antarctica, but are still above 60 S
