Equatorial Guinea still does not make the cut? Maybe their new name should be Almost-But-Not-Quite-Equatorial Guinea?

Oops, now added. It is one of 3 countries in this quiz with land on both sides of the equator but without equatorial land. In each case the equator passes between the islands that comprise the countries.

I didn’t think São Tomé and Príncipe had land on the equator. Turns out Ilheu das Rosas is at latitude zero and I was wrong…
