Sorry GB, I just listed the 3 that came in 5th after getting engaged. I knew there were 5 altogether that proposed during the Race.
But thanks for the heads up on who proposed afterwards. :tup:
G.B.:
Oh FIFTH, I didn't see that part. I'm too tired...

My first post in this thread. I'm not sure if this has been posted before, but this is gonna be the updated one. :)
Note: Double-length legs (in Seasons 6-10,14) that have been counted as one leg will be separated into 2 here.
Note: TAR10's final leg was mostly held in France; therefore, that leg will be counted to Europe.
Note: Visits to Istanbul will be counted as both Asia and Europe
For the past 26 seasons...
These are the total number of legs per continent:
1.) Asia – 106 legs
2.) Europe – 92 legs
3.) North America – 42 legs (including final legs and TAR8)
4.) Africa – 35 legs
5.) South America – 29 legs
6.) Australia and Oceania – 18 legs (including TAR14 and TAR20 Hawaii finishes)
And out of 26 seasons...
… North America has been visited for 26 seasons. (But only 23 seasons have full legs here due to Hawaii finish lines and TAR10 French finale.)
… Asia has been visited for 25 seasons.
… Europe has been visited for 24 seasons.
… Africa has been visited for 16 seasons.
… South America has been visited for 11 seasons.
… And Australia and Oceania has been visited for 10 seasons. (including TAR14 and TAR20 Hawaii finishes)
We also had...
… 3 seasons of 6-continent races.
… 8 seasons of 5-continent races.
… 11 seasons of 4-continent races.
… 3 seasons of 3-continent races.
… and 1 season of a 1-continent race.
Now, for the longest consecutive legs per continent.
Africa: TAR5 and TAR7 had 3 legs straight in Africa. TAR1 and TAR10 also had 3 legs in Africa but there was Europe in between for those 2 seasons.
Asia: TAR14 had 8 legs straight around Asia.
Australia and Oceania: TAR2 had 4 legs straight in Australia and New Zealand.
Europe: TAR21 had 6 legs straight in Europe. TAR6 had 7 legs there, but Senegal was visited somewhere in between.
North America: Obviously, TAR8 with 13 legs. Excluding TAR8, there are 5 seasons with 2 legs straight in North America. 4 of these are at the end of the race, while 1 of them (TAR3) had it during the first 2 legs of the season.
South America: TAR7 and TAR11 had their first 4 legs in South America.
