Taiwan is counted as part of China, but it would be good to include Taiwan in the list as well. :tup:NO!!!!! TAIWAN IS NOT PART OF CHINA. IT IS A SEPARATE COUNTRY. AS AN AMERICAN WHO'S PARENTS ARE FROM TAIWAN, THEY WILL TELL YOU IT IS NOT PART OF CHINA. PLEASE DO NOT SAY THAT IT IS PART OF CHINA AGAIN. THANK YOU.
However, Kenya is not valid per my definition of what a visit means. Nairobi Airport was only a place to transfer through on the way to Lake Manyara Lookout, Tanzania and back in episodes 7 and 8. Lake Manyara is southwest of Arusha, Tanzania so there is no way teams could have crossed into Kenya on the way. There were no tasks in Nairobi or elsewhere in Kenya to the best of my knowledge. In AR11 Oswald/Danny and Charla/Mirna connected in Nairobi Airport on the way from Zanzibar to Warsaw. However, again airport connections do not count as a visit.
Raymond,
You might call Spain a stopover. However, driving over 300 miles in more than 6 hours hardly qualifies as just a stopover in my view. The 4 Dieselgate teams all had a longer stay in Spain while solving a serious problem. This is quite different from what happened in Nairobi Airport.
HOW COULD YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN COPENGHAGEN? (That is the must visit place of Europe, after Belgium)Caelestor,
P.S. Ditto to above (though I'm not that fervent about the issue). Taiwan and China's visions have diverged quite a bit since the Civil War.

Sorry to yell, but this is a sensitive subject in my house.

That wasn't directed at you, ap. It was directed at joab. And I personally don't care what happens at your house either, ap. It's not all about you, ap.Taiwan is counted as part of China, but it would be good to include Taiwan in the list as well. :tup:NO!!!!! TAIWAN IS NOT PART OF CHINA. IT IS A SEPARATE COUNTRY.

I don't much care what goes on in your house, TARAsiaFan, but I do have some comment as a geographer and that is that Taiwan is clearly a separate country. There was no slight intended by me. I made a transfer error (one of about 5 or 6 in the development of the 2 lists) and Taiwan was left off my original list of first-time visits when it clearly should have been listed with AR12. I am sorry this happened but I have fixed it.
No problem, Joab. I did not mean to yell. My apologies for that.Taiwan is counted as part of China, but it would be good to include Taiwan in the list as well. :tup:NO!!!!!

I'm sorry if this is going to annoy you. But the fact is that Taiwan, even if you do not want to see it as part of China and a totally separate country, but Taiwan is still knows as the Republic of China.
And it is not nice to yell, because my point of the post is not to discuss whether China or Taiwan are two separate countries, but is solely based on the fact that i see it as part of China because even in Olympic games or any other international events, Taiwan is not recognized and used, but rather the Republic of China is used to represent Taiwanese instead. (Used to be and still maybe, the issues here are controversial and it's best we stop our discussion here) Besides, i was answering Raymond's question.
Michael:
I don't even have Cyprus, a bigger and more important island (or most islands worldwide) on the list and you want tiny Malta?
As someone has used as their screen name, U GOT 2 BE KIDIN ME.

And I am voting for the missing CONTINENT myself!! :funny:

apskip, i believe that even if michael was off-topic as he should have posted on a wishlist thread, but i believe he can also make a point that Malta has not been included in your list.
You don't have to be so rude about everything that you read and simply do not agree with. A place may be small and unknown and that is why TAR needs to visit the place to let us see/know/experience how wonderful and amazing it is? RIGHT?
Who wants to see TAR visit India/China every season? Since a bigger and more important place is what you believe should be focused on? :res:

Although, for the purposes of compiling a list of every country not visited, you have to draw the line somewhere or you get bogged down with all the tiny Caribbean island states etc. Its apskip's list - he started the topic - he can include or exclude who he likes. I know I'll be referring to it often.
I'd love to see a pastizzi eating detour though...
And I can do penguins all day!!

Unfortunately, they'll probably never get closer to Antarctica than they did in All-Stars.
Although, I can see it now, "herding penguins." Would we discover a "Penguin Whisperer?"

I think they should visit Malta!!!!!
I decided to go above and beyond and develop a list of when which countries were first used on an Amazing Race(not in order within each race). Here it is:
AR1- India France China Italy Thailand South Africa Tunisia Zambia (United States is you want to treat it that way)
AR2 - Australia Brazil New Zealand Namibia
AR3 - Mexico Austria Germany Malaysia Morocco Portugal Spain Switzerland United Kingdom Vietnam Scotland Singapore
AR4 - Netherlands South Korea
AR5 - Russia Tanzania Argentina Egypt Philippines Dubai Uruguay Canada
AR6 - Ethiopia Hungary Iceland Norway Senegal Sri Lanka Sweden Corsica(note - this is technically part of France but I show it)
AR7 - Chile Botswana Turkey Jamaica
AR8 - Panama Costa Rica
AR9 - Japan Greece Oman Sicily(note-this is technically part of Italy but I show it)
AR10 - Mongolia Finland Kuwait Madagascar Mauritius Ukraine
AR11 - Ecuador Chile Guam Mozambique Poland
AR12 - Burkina Faso Croatia Ireland Lithuania Taiwan
AR13 - Bolivia Cambodia Kazakhstan
AR14 - Romania
AR15 - Estonia Czech Republic
NOTE: a few errors on the original list are corrected above as a result of feedback from Raymond and David Junior. As a result of the interest, I double-checked a few listings and added a note on Corsica, a note of Sicily and the countries Taiwan, Turkey, Chile and Mongolia

did u forgot indonesia, or had they been there before?
im indonesian origin. so!
did u forgot indonesia, or had they been there before?perdfa, you missed some of the discussion at the top of this page on islands. Because Indonesia is composed of islands, because there are several large and many small islands making up Indonesia, I just decided to ignore Indoesia just like I have most islands around the globe. Indonesia has never been visited by a U.S> Amazing Race, but ARA1 went to Jakarta and Bali.
im indonesian origin. so!
It is interesting, though, how little attention TAR pays to islands and island groups... We've only seen Jamaica and Puerto Rico in the whole of the Caribbean; and only Hawaii and Guam in the Pacific. What about all those Survivor locations? Tahiti? Fiji? Are they too hard to get to for our pampered production crew now?

Maybe they fear sucky seasons if there are legs in the Cook Islands & Fiji? :funny:
Albania and Iran need to be visited
There are a lot of countries that need more visits and are not yet visited.
Europe: Spain, Greece, Finland, Slovenia, Latvia, Czech Republic, Ireland, Iceland
North America: Canada, The Bahamas, Costa Rica, Belize
South America: Uruguay, Bolivia
Asia: Israel, Maldives, Laos, Myanmar, Qatar
Africa: South Africa, Mauritius
Oceania: Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Vanuatu
Bold indicates the countries haven't visited (original American edition only), but they would consider to be visited in a near future.
Belize was a near miss.
I would be happy with a visit to Fiji.
I NEED to see a visit to Fiji, Guatemala, Laos, Qatar, Angola and Belize!
It is still theoretically possible to have a season of 8 or 9 completely new and safe countries. However, it is just not very practical logistically and financially.
I do better on these fat burners for men (https://www.muscleandfitness.com/supplements/best-fat-burners-for-men/) and would be happy with a visit to Fiji.
Fiji is 100% need to go, its just funny that everyone wants TAR to go to fiji and Survivor to leave fiji :lol3:I would be happy with a visit to Fiji.
Fiji sounds like a no-brainer to me too. A beautiful place and I feel like it would go so well with the Amazing Race.
I really want the race to visit Sarajevo in B&H. So much history in a culturally mixed city, and there are many things they can come up with. Good mountains in the background as well.

North America:
Cuba (I Know TARCanada 4 visited, but TARUS hasn't)
Dominican Republic
Nicaragua
St. Lucia
South America:
Guyana
Suriname
Venezuela

The U.S. Territories I want them to visit:
Northern Mariana Islands (2 Legs, before coming back to the U.S.)
American Samoa (The 11th Leg, also not just Pago Pago. I have a leg for American Samoa if Y'all want it)
I had forgotten a lot of these.
Antarctica, Nepal, and Burma are my big three for the US.
