It measures knowledge of landlocked nations, coastal borders, flags and territorial outlines through themed questions. It is useful for learners, curious readers and people preparing an exam on world geography, rather than for a professional purpose.

There are 3 levels: Easy, Intermediate and Expert, each with a 10-question Short version and a 30-question Full version. Short version gives a quick overview; Full version gives a more precise score. Start with Easy to see how it feels.

Practise map recognition and flag identification with blank outlines and flag charts. Work on distinguishing landlocked countries from coastal ones, and on locating major rivers, island groups and mountain ranges. The optional Hint gives a method tip without giving the answer.

A pass needs 6 correct answers out of 10 in a Short version or 18 out of 30 in a Full version. Bands: Needs work below 40%, Intermediate from 40%, Advanced from 60%, Expert from 80% only at Expert level. Passing earns a PDF certificate.
