Countries of the World Quiz – How Many Countries Can You Name?

There are 195 widely recognized countries: 193 United Nations member states plus 2 observer states (the Holy See and Palestine). This quiz includes all 195 of them.

In Shape Mode, you'll see the outline of a country. Type the country's name to guess. If you're correct, you'll see the next country. One wrong answer ends the game!

In Map Fill Mode, you have 15 minutes to name as many countries as possible. Type country names and they'll be highlighted on the world map. Try to find all 195 countries!

The round ends and you'll see how many of the 195 countries you found, plus your completion rate. Your best score is saved locally, so you can come back and try to beat it.
