There is some debate about which country has more islands, Indonesia or Finland. The CIA World Factbook states that Indonesia has 17,508 islands. Meanwhile, Finland’s Official Tourism Board boasts 180,000 islands. I did a bunch of research on this (because I am a crazy person) and it looks like d) Finland is the winner according to most sources.
