(Answer: Sierra Leone)
Almost got fooled again! For some reason, I always confuse Liberia with Sierra Leone, and as such, I always think Sierra Leone is an island.

Ireland without Northern Ireland simply looks wrong.

(Answer: Saint Lucia)
JUST made it! I still hate these tiny Caribbean islands. My other guesses were Barbados (99%), Aruba (95%), Dominica (99%), Martinique (99%), and Anguilla (97%)--all frustratingly close! For future reference, Saint Lucia has a rough-lined teardrop shape with a tiny peninsula pointing due south.

(Answer: Svalbard and Jan Mayen)

(Answer: Bangladesh)
I was tempted at first to think this country was an island, due to the southeastern Chittagong Division resembling a peninsula. It was the heavily-segmented river deltas of the southern coast that I finally recognized. Fun fact: Bangladesh is just under half the size of Italy, but it contains almost three times as many people.
