I saw the 100 routers in an area and had to share this! I had an instructor a couple of years ago that worked for IBM-Europe. He said they tried to keep European areas for countries. 1 Country = 1 Area. This all came up when another student asked, "what is a good measure for the number of routers in an area." He responded with the above explanation and then said, "but if you run into an East Germany and a West Germany that decide to become an Unified Germany, you could end up with 800, like we did. That is bad!"
just sharing!
