Without looking, I think China has 14:

North Korea
Russia
Mongolia
Kazakstan
Kyrgyzstan
Tajikstan
Afghanistan
Pakistan
India
Nepal
Bhutan
Myanmar
Laos
Vietnam

Russia has 14:
North Korea
China
Mongolia
Kazakstan
Azerbaijan
Armenia
Georgia
Ukraine
Belarus
Poland
Lithuania
Latvia
Estonia
Finland

So, same same.

Now I am going to go check.

Just checked.

I was right for China with 14.

I was also right with Russia at 14, but the wrong countries. Take away Armenia and add Norway.

You forgot Tibet. Wink

The scary thing is that China claims parts of Russia, India, Kazakstan, Vietnam, North Korea and probably others I'm not aware of.

The Evil Empire.
