Looking at the scores I think many people confuse Costa rica with Puerto rico, I know I used to mix them up. Trinidad is rather distinct, in a place not easy to mix up with others, cant really be anything else.

I used to often mix up Nicaragua and Costa Rica. Once I got one, I knew the other, but I would sometimes miss whichever was asked first. Trinidad is easy to remember since it's so close to South America.

Yes, well Puerto Rico, should not have been included anyways because it is a territory of the United States and Cuba, Jamaica, the Bahamas, Haiti and Dominican Republic should have not been included because they are in the Caribbean Sea, not Central America. Dominica is not included because it is also in the Caribbean Sea, not Central America.

Dominica isn't included because it's too tricky to include the tiny Antilles countries on a map including Central America. You can't see them all, and there are so many overseas territories that it gets tiring. Best keep them to a quiz of their own.

I imagine Puerto Rico is included because it's a big island in the area so it'd be odd not to mention it. No harm done in my opinion.

Call me an a**, but why are the Bahamas included. In no way are they in the Caribbean by means of physical geography. Human geography I would be much more agreeable.
+1

Aug 22, 2018
Neither physical nor "human" geography puts the Bahamas in the Caribbean or Central America. BTW: After all the emphasizing that

there are only two Americas: North America and South America,

NOW a quiz embracing a "Central America" is produced? And, your own map shows that Trinidad is closer to South America, than the phantom "Central" America.

People nowadays are hard to please.. and throw a fit if they dont get what they want. Comments like these makes me think of kids throwing a fit because they got a cookie but want icecream.

(Or 1 very very expensive gift, while their sibling got 2 gifts which was actually less expensive. Instead of being happy for the great gift they got, they get angry and trash the place, because they want 2 gifts too now... How miserable ones life must be when you get angry when people do good things for you)

I think all the sovereign islands that are not on the mainland of South America are bundled together in the North American continent. I think we usually bundle them together as Central America but that is not a continent.

This isn't a good selection of countries for "central america". Either don't include the caribbean at all, or include ALL countries in the caribbean, not just the big ones. Also, Mexico should probably be included because it is much closer in culture to its southern neighbors than its northern ones.

So we're including the Bahamas on this quiz, unlike the other Caribbean quiz (https://www.jetpunk.com/quizzes/caribbean-countries-and-territories). Is Bahamas going to be removed from this quiz, added to the other, or just stay the way things are and be contradictory?
+1
Level ∞
Mar 19, 2024
It will stay the same. Demands that over 5,000 featured quizzes be 100% consistent at all times are inherently unreasonable.

In any case, while Bahamas is not geographically in the Caribbean it is part of the Caribbean community, a small distinction that few seem to note.
