About the flags of Western Europe

Western Europe has 9 flags to learn, 9 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. France covers 551,695 km² while Monaco fits into 2.0 km². Germany is home to 83.5 million people; Monaco has 38 thousand.

Across Western Europe the recurring colours are red, white and blue. Of the 9 flags here, 9 carry red — which is exactly why colour on its own is a weak way to tell them apart.

The pairs that actually cost people points in Western Europe are Belgium–Germany, France–Luxembourg and France–Netherlands. There are 4 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 9 entries in Western Europe. 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.
