I physically can't type this fast, so how am I supposed to get the Border badge? I have done all the other necessary quizzes, but this one is just about impossible for me! Please, if even necessary, lower the required amount of points needed to earn the badge.

Inspired by TWM03's Optimal Solution (Nov 30,2020; 37 Words || 207 Characters):

Optimal solution by fewest keystrokes AND fewest word count (35 Words || 207 Characters):

USA Guatemala CostaRica Brazil Peru DC!R* SouthAfrica Malawi** Ethiopia Cameroon Togo Guinea Senegal Libya SaudiArabia Syria Iran UK France Spain Italy Austria Denmark*** Sweden^ Romania Serbia FYROM India Laos Indonesia Brunei ROK Russia Tajistan [sic]

* ! signifies using the left arrow key to type R in the middle of D_C to also get DRC as well as DR at once

** Interchangeable with Zambia

*** or Germany

^ or Norway

(Quick note: TWM03 had made the conclusion that an optimal solution using PRC for China didn't exist; I now agree, but would welcome anyone who proves the claim wrong)

SPOILER ALERT:

If you want to finish this quick and easy do the following:

For South America: Peru, Brazil

For North America: USA (United States), Costa Rica, Guatemala, DR (Dominican Republic)

For Africa: Ethiopia, South Africa, Cameroon, DRC (Congo), Tanzania, Algeria, Guinea, Senegal, Togo

For Europe: Spain, France, Italy, Germany, UK, Austria, Bosnia, Kosovo, Romania, Russia, Sweden

For Asia: China, Kazakstan, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Laos, ROK (South Korea), KSA (Saudi Arabia), Israel, Turkey

For Oceania: ---

That's probably one of the most efficient ways to complete it.
