About Countries

The world holds nearly two hundred countries, and the sixteen in this crossword stretch across every inhabited continent. Nepal claims the summit of Mount Everest on its border with China. Chile runs more than 2,600 miles down the Pacific coast while staying narrow the whole way. Nigeria has the largest population in Africa, and Iceland sits atop a volcanic ridge where two tectonic plates pull apart. Clues here draw on capitals, landmarks, rivers, and neighbors.

Geography teachers reviewing continents and capitals, and anyone who likes tracing a map while filling in the grid.
