If you mean like a pencil then Chile (although take a look at Gambia).
The longest ever was the British Empire or without taking bodies of water into consideration it was the Mongol Empire.
As for being around the longest it is Switzerland. Greece was conquered by others several times.

Longest meaning height, width or longevity?
The widest country from E-W is Russia (9000 km)
The longest from N-S is Chile (4630 km)
The longest existing independent nation would be Greece.

The longest country in the world is..... Hultintono a small country situated just off the west coast of Frantybobland. It gets its length from a secret government initiative to define it self as the longest country in the world for the purposes of this question. Although obviously its not really that long, but u can go to jail for suggesting that in Hultintono!

Truly a frightening set of responses...
The answer is Russia in a blowout, as some have already quite correctly answered.
Chile is the most elongated country, compared to its width. Look at a map, people.
