Thanks for the suggestions. However, it seems that I would still have over 50 forums on one page if, as on your first picture, I had Americas (Canada, US), Europe (… about 50 countries), Latin American (… more countries), etc.

Maybe I could do…
Regions Category
-North America Category
-Latin America Category
-Europe Category…
-etc…

then under Europe…
–Germany Category
–France Category
–etc…

and under Germany…
— forum 1
— forum 2
— etc.

Would that work from a user’s perspective and a functional perspective?

Or, I was playing around with this solution…

(see http://studyabroad.orbisint.com/)

Home page… links directly to each country without using the forums page

Then users see the country (category) and the 6 forums for that country.

With this solution is it possible to remove the “forums” link in the breadcrumb?

How does that solution compare in terms of user and software functionality?

I would still have hundreds of forums in the database, but they would not all be visible on a single page that way. I assume that would not cause performance issues?

Thanks for your help!
