Correct answer
Explanation
This question reflects a specific point in time - Russia had 11 time zones from 2010-2014. Russia has since reduced to 9 time zones (2014-), and currently has 11 again (since 2016). When this question was written, 11 was correct.
AI explanation
Russia spans 11 time zones due to its vast east-west territorial extent, from Kaliningrad in the west to the Far East near the Bering Strait. This makes it the country with the most time zones of any single nation, more than the other listed figures which understate its span.
