It is nothing to do with the Mercator Projection. It is because you haven't included China in your map. And the map you have in your quiz isn't even a Mercator Projection anyway. See here for more details.
Great quiz, given 5 stars (was a sad sight to still see them white ;) ) could ve done with a tad more time. 30 seconds, so ypu can have typos and think about a country or two
The bridge between those two would qualify them for me, but I'm more concerned about how there is a 9 mile gap between Spain and Morroco with no bridge
Just to challenge for the nitpicker's award, since Andorra is excluded, there should be a grey/white gap on the map where it is located - and I can't see it.
There's nothing that says because a country is between two others, they have to be connected. Andorra simply chose not to participate in Spain and France's games when they joined forces. Since it was unnecessary for Andorra to join, they have just become the Lesotho of this super country!
there is a small strait between Morrocco and Spain, so they dont borde like that, but there are some Spanish cities on the coastline of morrocco, so you could count them as bordeing like that
Not to be nitpicky but it bothers me that the SVG makes it look like Sweden and Denmark are connected by land. Same for Spain and Morocco and the Danish islands.
Though shouldn't Andorra be on the list too?
Or can we all do that, but you've just never told us?
Has a better ring to it.
Thanks!
