I know this probably isn't the quickest solution but this is the best one I've found: Italy (5), Russia (6), Romania(7), Albania(7), Germany(7), Spain (5), Bosnia (6), Austria (7), Sweden (6), Iceland (7), Ireland (7), Monaco (6) Malta (5) Total: 81

Edit: Just realized you can sub out Ireland (7) for UK (2) bringing the total down to 76

Read the instructions, it says type in a country and it fills in the countries that it borders on the map aswell. It isnt fill in a country by typing a country that borders it.

Edit: it actually also even says (either after your comment or in anticipation of likewise comments) there are two countries that do not border another country. It is all but spelled out..

When Italy is filled in, why aren't San Marino and Vatican City also filled in?
+2
Level 26
Aug 24, 2022
If you type a country bordering Italy (that’s not San Marino or Vatican City) Italy would be filled in, but those 2 countries wouldn’t be filled in because that would mean there is 2 borders (e.g. France borders Italy, Italy borders Vatican City.) So you would have to directly type Italy for that to also be filled in.

St Martin is an overseas collectivity of France, which is effectively a colony. St Martin is also not part of the Country of the Netherlands. So while the Kingdom of the Netherlands borders French territory, the Netherlands doesn't border France.

But France does not border the Netherlands within Europe, and Gibraltar is not part of the UK (being a British Overseas Territory).

Hi QM, this quiz was made after Quizzer6794's version was made. Why is this?

This was a 60 second by borders originally but QM changed the timing to 30 seconds so it looks like that I copied the quiz when in fact I had a different amount of time originally.
