Senegal, Algeria, Sudan, Somalia, Liberia, Togo, Cameroon, Congo, Mozambique, South africa, Madagascar, Sao tome, Comoros, Seychelles, Mauritius, Cape verde.
Long names but the amount of borders cancels it out I think.
please post if you did better!
I don't know if the mainland can be done with fewer than 10 countries, but it can be done with fewer characters:
You have Congo, which will give both the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Republic of the Congo and all their bordering countries. But just the Democratic Republic of the Congo is enough to get the job done; the Republic of the Congo is not needed as a separate entity. In that case, replace Congo with DRC, saving two characters. And replace Mozambique with Malawi, saving another four characters, for a total saving of six characters.
South Africa
Malawi
DRC
Ethiopia
Libya
Togo
Guinea
Senegal
Morocco/Algeria
for the mainland. If I counted right, that's 57 letters, or about 2 a second with no mistakes.
Adding the islands means another 52, doubling the difficulty. Not to say that you must remove them from the quiz, or that you must extend the time, but be aware this quiz is twice as had with them in as with them out.
Took me about 10 tries and moment to look at map for plan
Senegal
Guinea
Algeria
Sudan
Togo
Cameroon
Somalia
DRC
Malawi
SouthAfrica
Only 65 characters.
Algeria, Egypt, Guinea, Gambia, Togo, Cameroon, Ethiopia, South Africa, Tanzania, Zambia, São Tomé, Comoros, Seychelles, Cape Verde, Madagascar, Mauritius.
I don't need any comments saying: "My way was better", I did it with 5 seconds left, that's good for me.
You can say mauritis and it works. It takes like 1/2 a second to type.
Second off:
You can do 'gabon' or 'cameroon' and it works just as well. This is countries by borders anyhow.
Jetpunk has sharpened my ability to name countries.
Algeria, Kenya, Congo, Sudan, South Africa are the first ones you do.
Then you do Gabon, Guinea, Senegal, Benin, Malawi.
And then the island countries. I'm a really quick texter so this was how I did it lol, but for anyone who wants basic advice, Algeria and Sudan basically cover the Saharan part of Africa. Congo uses both Congos, so that's most of central Africa, and South Africa takes came of, erm, southern Africa.
Gambia, Mauritania, Libya, DRC, Gabon, South Africa, Malawi, Ghana, Guinea, Ethiopia, Benin, then the 6 islands.
My best on the whole world map is 40 seconds (or 50 seconds left), but that doesnt include the island nations that dont border anything. The best i could do on this is probably 20 seconds (or 10 seconds remaining).
