Well Canada seems too obvious (2nd only to Russia in size)
Brazil is 5th largest country.
So I'll say...it's a trick question and the answer is the same as who has the most islands...
Sweden

I was going to say Finland. But then I saw it wasn't listed. Finland has thousands and thousands of lakes in a relatively small country.

This is a trick question. If you take the first letter for every country on your options and rearrange them, it spells "scrub".

[–] [deleted] a year ago

reply

[–] samoanjoes (58645) a year ago

When I leave the country, but never to another province.
