Flags, Capitals, Countries, Departments: Four Topics, Four Dedicated Pages

Each of our major geography topics has its own dedicated page, with its own quizzes and difficulty levels. The flags quiz lets you identify the banners of 195 countries, the capitals quiz has you pinpointing Bratislava or Naypyidaw, the French departments quiz is for anyone who wants to test their knowledge of mainland France, and the countries of the world quiz covers records for area, population, and borders.

A Different Format for a Change: The Timed Quiz

If you're tired of multiple choice, we've got you covered with the timed quiz format: no answer choices, you type in the name of a country, a department, or a state yourself, and the clock is ticking. How many French departments can you name in 12 minutes? What about the 47 European countries, micro-states included? Or the 50 US states? The biggest challenge is the world map game: all 197 countries on the planet in 15 minutes, with a zoomable world map that fills in as you answer. Same geography topic, much more demanding format.

Three Levels for Every Player

The geography quizzes come in easy, medium, and hard. The easy level covers the basics you'd learn in school—European capitals, continents, French borders. The medium level digs a bit deeper: capitals in Asia and Africa, minor rivers, area records. The hard level is for people who really know their stuff—obscure administrative capitals, historical flags, tricky territorial details. Each quiz mixes all the topics so the experience never feels repetitive.

Fact-Checked Answers, Reliable Sources

Every answer is verified against reliable sources: Wikipedia, atlases, the Census Bureau, and national geographic agencies. Every figure is cross-checked. If you spot an error, just click "Report an Error" and we'll fix it within 48 hours.
