1. Which is the largest country in the
world? OK
2. What is the largest country in the world? OK
4. Which country is the
largest in the world? OK
Which: You have a limited choice of things.
What: You have a unlimited choice of things.
For countries you �ll see that both are used. After all, is 200 (countries) limited or unlimited...? I personally would go for What �s the largest country in the world?

I fully agree with Philip, with one exception: #3 is also correct, it is just not as "clean" as the others. |
