Expedition #1104 stays in Asia at the Medium level: three legs, 13 questions and 16 different countries along the way. It opens with Name the country (4 questions), carries on with Bigger or smaller (3 questions) and lands with Find the country (6 questions).

Medium draws on three quarters of the region, and the wrong options come from the same continent, so you have to know where things actually are.

If you joined the stops capital to capital, in the order the questions bring them, the dashed line would be 50,990 km long, with 15 hops between 16 stops.
