Two new countries every day, the same for everyone. Older puzzles stay playable under Practice. Headlines come from local news outlets and are translated into English where needed. Names, places and other giveaways are blacked out; headlines 4 and 5 lift some of the bars, and the end of the round lifts them all.

Distance is measured between the closest borders of the two countries, counting the mainland and nearby islands but not far-off territories such as French Guiana. "Neighbour" means the two share a land border.
