Does France have any territory bordering Sudan, or does this not wrap-around like the chain-letter quizzes?

You could make it a wrap around by continuing through N. Africa to Morocco, which borders Spain (Ceuta & Melilla), which of course borders France.

Agreed.

Pure Gossip. all other countries' clues were factual or historical.

Please provide a factual clue.

Yes, I had that problem - I thought there was a flaw in the questions until I re-read the rubric - "All the countries border the ones that come before and after."

This might be a bit nitpicky, but the Yellow River clue is the same clue for both the #1 and #2 quizzes of this series. Maybe mix it up by having another clue for China?

Not gonna lie I feel that "has a Z in its name" is a bit to vague

It is less vague if you also know that it's bordering the previous country... there aren't alot of countries with a Z in their name in Europe.

The clue could certainly be improved making it something actually about the country - such as the name of the river running through its capital, or the name of the famous square or bridge in the capital, a well-known city that is known for making an internationally famous style of beer, a famous author who was born here - there are many more interesting questions to ask. if I were from this country, I'd probably be a little disappointed in this clue.

Apart from a couple of clues ("Z" and junta for me), the other ones can be guessed without knowing the bordering one. I would have liked more a quiz with more vague clues, which only apply to one of the bordering countries of the previous guess.

That would be more challenging.

There is a shorter way from France to Sudan

just take a boat through the Mediterranean and go through the Suez canal and and keep going south till you find sudan

You should add caveat that country can't be used twice, cause Switzerand has "Z" and borders Austria
