General Knowledge Quiz

Eeeee, there was only one there when I posted that! :run:

Anyway, you got all three correct, so you're up. (Although technically it's the entire explosm site that gets the hits, not just Cyanide & Happiness.)
 
XKCD is first :woot:

One of the best comic there is. Much better than most "mainstream" comics anyway.
 
Last border-question from me in a while...:

In South America, there are 4 countries where all of them border each other. Which countries is this?
 
Avoid geography questions when I'm around :p. Especially if it can easily be answered with a map, I'm using maps everyday.

So, again a quick border question. What is the shortest border in the world (between which countries?). I'm not asking about the total length of the border, but the shortest "non broken piece of border".
 
Panama and Colombia?
 
Monaco-France ? Or Vatican city-Italy ? or one of those city states that we have in abundance in Europe ?

I don't get the "non-broken piece of border" btw.

EDIT : Wait, I think I get it now. Is it the border between the UK and France in the Chunnel, by any chance ?
 
Monaco-France ? Or Vatican city-Italy ? or one of those city states that we have in abundance in Europe ?
Nope. Vatican city is to long with 3.2 km, and Mocano is even bigger with 4.4 km.

I don't get the "non-broken piece of border" btw.
For instance, France has several pieces of border with Spain: from Atlantic to Andora, from Andora to the Mediterranean sea, and around the LLivia enclave.
 
So, it's not the Chunnel, then ?
 
The Causeway between Malaysia and Singapore is even smaller I believe.

I googled the answer - and it is slightly ridiculous :p
 
That island in the Caribbean, part of the Netherlands Antilles, divided between Netherlands and France. Saint-something.
No, with 10.2 km Saint Martin is way to big.

Chunnel doesn't count, as there is no real border here. Border controls are done in control zones, at either side of the tunnel.
