There are so many comments here about Gibraltar (etc) giving the UK more than one border.... and there are many sensible people pointing out that the quiz clearly says it doesn't include overseas territories. Even if it did, the British Overseas Territories are NOT part of the UK anyway. They belong to the UK but aren't part of it. It's a complicated distinction and I'm not surprised people get it wrong, but it means that Spain definitely does not border the UK. Spain borders a piece of land which the UK has responsibility for.
Think of it like a person touching your pet dog. They're touching something which belongs to you, and is part of your "family", but they're not touching you.
"Middle Island" is half owned by Bahrain and half by Saudi Arabia. But, I'm not sure if it should count, since it is not connected to the main island of Bahrain, nor mainland Saudi Arabia. So , is it an "overseas territory?" This example is maybe a little tricky, but, ultimately, I guess it could go either way.
hans island is split between denmark and canada period it doesnt matter if you dont recognize greenland as danish clay that still means canada borders greenland
The Hans Island dispute has been solved. Canada should be removed, and Denmark too possibly. When this quiz is next updated, this should be changed or a caveat added. I have not done enough research to be able to say whether or not the change has taken place yet or not.
Greenland was a Danish colony until 1953, when it was redefined as a district of Denmark. In addition to its own local government, Greenland has two representatives in the Danish Parliament, the Folketing.
Canada and Denmark are wrong because Canada share an island with Greenland and Greenland is part of Denmark and both of the countries borders one other country so no canada or denmark
If we are getting technical, I believe we should add Moldova. Moldova borders both Ukraine and Romania. However, the border with Romania follows a river over its full length. Therefore, Moldova and Romania only border through bridges, which is excluded by the quiz description.
Maybe we should change ‘border by bridges’ in the description into ‘border by sea bridges’?

Borders in one island
Country Borders-India
Eswatini borders Mozambique in the east and South Africa with the rest of its body
Eswatini borders Mozambique in the east and South Africa with the rest of its body

It is part of Denmark - fix the quiz.
Like one tiny island that is half Canada, half Greenland.
Dunno if this should really count tho.
