How Hard Was It?

Difficulty rating

Ecuador rates 3 of 5 — Moderate. The rating comes from land area and land-neighbour count, weighted 65/35 toward size: it ranks 74 of 176 by area and has 2 land neighbours.

The fastest opening guess

Kazakhstan was the strongest opener against this answer. From there the target reads 13,846 km away, a distance shared by only 1 other candidate — so a single guess could have cut the field to 2 countries.

The value of an opening guess swings enormously depending on where the answer sits. Our opening-country analysis ranks every candidate on average performance rather than one lucky day.
