About the flags of Central America

Central America has 7 flags to learn, 7 of them belonging to UN member states. This quiz draws its questions from all of them, and the complete list with names and capitals sits directly below the game.

The countries behind those flags differ enormously in scale. Nicaragua covers 130,373 km² while El Salvador fits into 21,041 km². Guatemala is home to 18.7 million people; Belize has 423 thousand.

Across Central America the recurring colours are blue, white and red. Of the 7 flags here, 7 carry blue — which is exactly why colour on its own is a weak way to tell them apart.

The pairs that actually cost people points in Central America are El Salvador–Guatemala, El Salvador–Honduras and El Salvador–Nicaragua. There are 6 look-alike pairings inside this region, so it is worth learning the one detail that separates each pair rather than the general impression.

Frequently asked questions

How many countries are in this quiz?

This quiz covers all 7 entries in Central America. Questions are drawn from the full set, and the complete list appears in the table on this page.

Do I need an account?

No. There is no sign-up and no login. Your score stays in your own browser and is never sent anywhere.

How are the wrong answers chosen?

Deliberately, not at random. Each question prefers flags that are genuinely confusable with the right answer, then countries from the same sub-region, so guessing by elimination does not work.

Is it free?

Yes, completely free with no limit on how many times you play.
