I've just had a very long day and a half of travel and my brain is foggy, but I'm not seeing why North Korea should be a response for this quiz. Someone wake me up?

Meaningless to include overseas borders, without including the area of overseas territories. If Ireland not should been included, because of Gibraltar; then Germany should been included, because of Greenland.

Total land area of Greenland=836,300 mi²

Total land area of Germany=137,847 mi²

Germany should be added to the list as, technically, Denmark is bigger

Why are so many quizzes ineligible for points? What is the point (N.P.I.) of even having them on the site?
