How to use the Country Wheel
The Country Wheel spins real flags and countries, and turns into a flag quiz. Here's how to choose regions, change what's shown and play the quiz.
Quick start
- Pick a region: all countries, or one continent.
- Want fewer? Open the country list and untick any you don't want.
- Choose what the wheel shows: flag and name, just the flag, or just the name.
- Press Spin the wheel. The country is chosen at random before the wheel moves, then the wheel lands on it.
Pick a region
Choose All countries (195) or a region: Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, South America or Oceania. You can also search and tick individual countries to build your own set.


Flags, names or both
Show on the wheel switches between Flag and name, Flag only (a harder guessing game) or Name only.

Your country
The result shows the flag, the country and its region. Spin again, or Remove from wheel to work through a list of countries one by one.

Play the flag quiz
Switch on Quiz and each spin asks a question: guess the country from its flag, or find the flag for a country. Pick from the answer choices and your score and streak are kept.

Customize everything else
This page uses the same wheel as the homepage, so all the usual options work here too. The full wheel guide explains each one with pictures:
