Country Logic Puzzle by Scambigol #33
Follow instructions carefully!
1) No country appears more than once
2) In each row adjacent countries border each other
3) To properly complete the quiz you must never write down a country if you're not 100% sure it's the one that goes there!
- 'Unconnected' countries have been greyed out (all other countries are answers)
- All countries belong to horizontal paths with horizontal length between 4 and 6
- The three countries in cells merged downwards adjacent to two smaller cells to one side 'connect' two paths; the corresponding cells have a dark grey background
- If a country borders the one in the cell just below, the cell border is yellow; if it borders the cell two below the cell border is blu; in case it borders both it is green
- Some cell pairs belonging to the same path or connected paths have pink and red borders: the red answer is larger than the corresponding pink one.
In the rightmost column you are shown a 'recap' showing the length of the corresponding path and symbols with the following meanings:
⇒ this path is 'connected' to the one below via a country that belongs to both
↓ there's at least one country bordering the one in the cell below
↯ there's at least one country bordering the one two cells below

Country names are standard JetPunk names
Overseas borders and maritime lake borders are considered
To avoid whammies type 'igeria' and add N at the start if you want to write Nigeria avoiding Niger; similarly type 'uineabissau' and add G (to avoid Guinea and GB type-ins); also be careful about Ukraine/Uk etc
this quiz is used to rank countries by area

A few remarks:
1) You have mixed up yellow and blue in the instructions.
2) I came across three spots where the order of neighbouring countries does not have a unique solution. Both on rows 13 (S etc.) and 21 (L etc.) the first two countries could be the other way around as well, I believe. These would be easy to fix using the pink and red squares. Now the more difficult one to fix would be the first three countries in row 7 (F etc.). Currently in order ABC, I believe BAC and BCA would work as well. It seems to me that the only way you can fix this without new rules is to use several pinks and reds in a row. If the first three cells were pink-red-red or red-pink-red, the solution would be unique (CBA or BCA, respectively).
3) (I'm running out of characters, will continue below)
4) There is one non-coloured cell in the second-to-last row the which is a bit confusing, because it is in the middle of four coloured cells and hence looks like it is pink. Well, even if it were, it would not change the solution, but the whole quiz would be a bit more clear using background colours rather than coloured borders. Probably not worth the work needed to change that though.
Again, thank you! I wish to see many more of these in the future! Luckily I still have a few unsolved ones to enjoy.
Your remarks:
1) fixed, thanks
2) 13 and 21: I don't think so because the first country does not border the third one? I fixed 7 by swapping them around because Sweden being largest but not bordering Russia now means it is forced to go in second position.
3) I added in caveats the quiz I used as reference for determing areas. I am not entirely sure this never considers overseas areas but either way one wammy is accepted
4) I 'reversed' the last row to fix the "non-pink" cell. I tend not to use background colours because these disappear when you fill the cell whereas background stay.
I made additions to try and help readability (arrows and coloured 3 connecting countries.
