About the flags of the Nordic Countries

The Nordic Countries has 5 flags to learn, 5 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. Sweden covers 450,295 km² while Denmark fits into 43,094 km². Sweden is home to 10.6 million people; Iceland has 392 thousand.

Across the Nordic Countries the recurring colours are white, blue and red. Of the 5 flags here, 4 carry white — which is exactly why colour on its own is a weak way to tell them apart.

The pairs that actually cost people points in the Nordic Countries are Denmark–Finland, Denmark–Iceland and Denmark–Norway. There are 8 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 5 entries in the Nordic Countries. 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.
