Denmark should be on here. Greenland alone has over 27500 miles of coastline.

The British Cartographic Society also puts the UK into the top 10 (presuming all other figures are correct) With Great Britain having a total coast line of 11500 miles and that ignores Northern Ireland and all the crown dependencies like Gibraltar, Falklands, etc... http://www.cartography.org.uk/default.asp?contentID=749

Dobbins, you're half right. I used a more accurate website and found out that Greenland is 3rd in the world. Denmark is 17th in the world, though. And Javonzir, you're wrong. The UK is 13th in the world. Thanks, Dobbins. I'll fix it.

Greenland isn't a country, it's part of Denmark. Dobbins is right, the quiz should list Denmark, not Greenland.

Bluedevilwrshpr, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_length_of_coastline lists Denmark and Greenland separately, and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenland explains the difference between Denmark and Greenland.

Dude, Greenland is part of Denmark! This would be like putting Alaska on a quiz separate from the US.
