Definition of EEZ: an exclusive economic zone (EEZ) is a seazone over which a state has special rights over the exploration and use of marine resources...generally extends 200nm from coastal baselines
An EEZ can be named after the country itself or after various territories, constituent countries, regions, etc. A handful of Joint EEZ's were not considered as they would've been impossible to guess (i.e. Colombia-Jamaica). If the Hint is "Country" the name sought is the name of the country itself - i.e. the mainland's surrounding EEZ water area. There were 230+ in the list however I dropped the largest of the group that were simply the countries themselves (i.e. Russia), but did leave smaller EEZ's which are part of them.

	wondering where the Maldives, Seychelles, maybe a couple other island nations are? they were omitted to keep the list at 200...I favored having EEZ's that were not just the country themselves and omitted the largest EEZ's that were the entire country, which included the Seychelles, Maldives, etc.

	darinh:	Apr 4th, 2011 at 00:03 GMT		1 point
	Correction to the above statement - Maldives in fact should've been included and was added. Seychelles didn't qualify.

	Eliminating the largest makes the quiz hard to do, because there's no way a priori to know which ones you've eliminated. I'd rather if you'd just had it be the 200 largest.

	darinh:	Apr 4th, 2011 at 03:34 GMT		1 point
	I do agree, but then people would have trouble with many of the small ones...I guess the best way to think of it is all the non-country-named EEZ's along with the smallest ones which bring the total to 200.
