Why some countries are much harder to find
Difficulty is not only about country size. Remote islands, enclaves, fragmented territories, and places with few familiar neighbours can all produce difficult searches.

Islands and isolated regions
Small Pacific and Caribbean nations are hard because a continental guess can remain thousands of kilometres away without revealing a clear direction. Learn island chains as groups and use the nearest large coastline as a bridge.
Small states and confusing borders
Compact European states and countries with similar neighbours can hide inside a hot region. Once distances collapse, review microstates, enclaves, and less frequently guessed border countries before jumping away.
