Countries of the World Quiz
Quick Quiz
5 free games left today
There are 195+ countries in this quiz, and most people can confidently place fewer than half of them. The countries of the world quiz measures where you stand: each round asks ten capital questions sampled from the full global list, and the four-option format keeps every question fair even when the country is one you have never thought about.
Because the pool is the entire planet, the difficulty swings naturally. A question about Germany can be followed by one about Vanuatu. That variety is what makes the quiz worth replaying: no continent is safe, and a run of easy questions never lasts. Over multiple rounds the quiz effectively walks you through the whole world map, one country at a time.
The game runs in your browser on any device and starts instantly. No account is needed and each round takes about two minutes, short enough for a coffee break and long enough to sting when you miss an easy one. If you want to focus your practice, the Flags Quiz drills flags only, the Capitals Quiz sticks to capital cities, and the map quizzes ask you to find countries by shape and location instead of by name.
