I think you read my comment wrong. On maps a poltical divsion is a boundry defined by a purely logical and not pysical consrstain such as the border of a country or provence. There poltical divisoins becues there is no pysical line there and rarely are there geological featuer defining them other then an abstract logical idea (tho in same cases poltical divison can fallow geoloical or other types of divdions like how the canadain/us border fallows the 49th parael). Some info from wikipeida about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map#World_maps_and_projections I will give you the benfite of the dougth this time and assume it is a break down in coumictiona and langue beariers and not an exteramly hypicritcal lack of kownalge of what a potilcal map/divison is (hyprtical due to staments from other topic). |

I only played through the first five levels then had to stop to babysit. Bookmarked it. 150K on the first five. Closest was 86km, furthest 4500km Uruguay. Thinking Spain. Thanks Dragan; not a bad little exercise. Cheers |

I don't know where a lot of african nations are aswell as a few south american ones so I usually end on level 6 where most of questions are from there. |
