Flags of Europe Quiz

Thank you Eurovision! Years of watching finally paid off.

What's Eurovision?

It's a competition where people from different countries in Europe (and oddly Australia) sing and they try to sing the best they can eta.

israel?

Morocco participated once, too.

Yep harel skaat performed for Israel one year

@GeoGeotic7, he is say8ing that in addition to the countries of Europe and Australia; Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Cyprus and Israel also compete.

Forgot Monaco, the upside down Poland...

got moldova at 10 secs

that is indonesia

European flags almost all look alike. Kudos to the handful that dared to be different.

Lol, it's nothing compared to Africa.

It is called Pan African Colors

it's also called countries being inspired by Abyssinia.

thats a pretty tough quiz!!

fewer :p

BOOM!100%with 1 second left!great quiz, doesn't include cyprus though

Only if you consider the United Nations obscure; they have Cyprus classified as a part of Western Asia, and JetPunk does seem to follow the UN listing consistently.

Also, for a change, could we debate the location of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia?

I would love it, they hardly get any love in the discussions!

okay, jetpunk doesnt always follow the UN, as jetpunk counts taiwan and kosovo, which the UN does not, and the UN counts Palestine, which jetpunnk does not. that being said, i think its weird seeing cyprus as asian as its half greek half turish ethnicity and is in the EU

Don't get ahead of yourself, the UN does not recognise the Palestine

got them all, but got mixed up between Andorra and Moldova. They are VERY similar!! The only thing that is different is the symbol in the middle. Now I have to study the differences between the two.

If you look closely to the coat of arms of Andorra you will see the Catalan flag "La Senyera"

4:28 left!! This was a lot easier than I thought.

Aaah 4:44 flags are definitely my salvation

Could you please accept FYROM for Macedonia? There are quite a few countries which do not use the term "Macedonia" for this particular country (e.g. Greece)

You know the M in FYROM stands for Macedonia, right? Personally I was pleased to see Holy See be accepted for the Vatican for once.

I know the M stands for Macedonia, but Macedonia is a wider region that includes a significant part of Greece. Using the name "Macedonia" is something like using the name "Scandinavia" for Sweden or "Iberia" for Spain. The use of the name "Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia prevents historical and geographical misunderstandings, which is why countries like Greece object to the international use of the name "Macedonia".

So although I am not questioning the use of the term "Macedonia" here, since it is widely accepted, I don't see why FYROM can't be accepted as an alternative answer

Which other country on Earth is called Macedonia? It's more like calling the United States of America simply "America." I suppose they could accept both, but then, they should also start accepting PRC for China, DPRK for North Korea, ROK for South Korea, KSA for Saudi Arabia and so on.

It may not be an entire country, but Greek Macedonia does exist and has also linked itself with some rich history under that precise name, unlike countries in the American continent other than the USA. For example, to say that Alexander the Great was a Macedonian and imply that he is linked more closely with FYROM is a mistake and actually deprives Greeks of a part of their national heritage. This is why "Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia" is a full name that is more substantial than "Kingdom of Saudi Arabia".

Alexander the Great was not linked to either the modern nation state of Macedonia or the modern nation state of Greece. To assert either is absurd in the extreme and just shows that you have bought into one or the other country's nationalistic propaganda. Both the Macedonian and Greek nationalism movements originated at approximately the same time. "Greek" as an ethnicity wasn't a thing until pretty recently. And like all nationalist movements the Greek one required a creation myth at its center. So did the Macedonian. It's not our fault that they happened to overlap. Realistically, Alexander probably impregnated so many people that it's quite likely you are both right (and wrong). Macedonia as an ancient region encompassed all of present day Greek Macedonia/Thrace and all of the present day nation state of Macedonia as well as small parts of neighboring countries. It makes no sense to accept a name for a country that that country didn't choose or want picked by their neighbors.

Wow, I only got 10. I feel really embarrassed. I see many repeats of this quiz in my future.

the flags arent shs are loading even after i waited theowing up for me, none of the image whole 5 mins

4:29 left! Would've finished sooner, but my fingers are slow today.

Missed Monaco

44/45 I forgot Luxembourg :D BTW great quiz :)

Did anyone notice how beautiful is Serbia's flag?

ughhh no

Yeah. Serbian flag is original, and has the beautiful song on Eurovision Junior 2019.

they literally flipped a Russian flag and slapped a coat of arms on it. How is that original

finished with 5.55 left.

Oman is in Asia, Not Europe.

And what's right next to Oman? Can you tell me, all ye men?

Oh how I love flags

At least I know the flags now but for some reason when flags are exactly identical like romania and chad I guess and I'm somehow I'm always right. WEIRD!

Pretty smart to guess the European one.

I had fun with flags. Good order, quizmaster!

Too easy. 5 minutes left. Almost had a brain freeze at problem number 29. Good thing I remembered that one. :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

Spelled Montenegro wrong... Dang! Never done that before...

4:42 left

44/45 10 year old (honest)

Thank you for 5 points :)

I'm just 11 and I got all right with 4.09 left

41, 15 years of age and first time effort :)

Aujourd'hui, je finis à tricoter une écharpe faite de tous ces drapeaux, et un supplément de quelques ^_^ Il est d'environ 50 pieds de long!

Please accept Czechia!

Czechia for Czech republic

"In 2013, Czech president Miloš Zeman recommended the wider official use of Czechia,[34] and on 14 April 2016, the country's political leadership agreed to make Czechia the official short name. The new name was approved by the Czech cabinet on 2 May 2016[35] as the Czech Republic's official short name and was published in the United Nations UNTERM and UNGEGN country name databases on July 5th, 2016"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_of_the_Czech_Republic#Adoption_of_Czechia

Some of us prefer to type "Eire" because it's near the start of the quiz, it's just four letters and they're all on the left hand. Please add!

If you like flag quizzes, try my Countries without red or blue on their flags

Wasn't hard, nice quiz :-)

it's funny that kosovo is among the most missed when it literally has an IMAGE OF ITSELF on its flag.

That is not it, cause I just took another quiz where kosovo was not last at all and still it was one of the least guessed ones.

I was shocked.. I didnt know the flag either, but went like ok their is a country shape on thaat flag, so which country matches it... and it was a quiz WITH A MAP so you just had to look..

You do have to know what Kosovo looks like, though, in order to realize that is Kosovo on the flag. If you don't know what it looks like, the image on the flag won't help.

I hate to be that guy, but it's not yellow, apparently its 'gold'.

Where is Turkey?

Just north of Syria, west of Armenia. You can't miss it.

Sail east from Tunisia, take a slight right at Crete, and you'll be there. You could also sail north from Egypt or south from Ukraine and you'll find it pretty easily.

yea where is cyprus

Just south of Turkey, west of Syria, and north of Egypt. Hard to miss.

44/44 4:08 left! I'm 12 and I would've gotten even better if if I didn't accidentally type "monavo" a million times instead of "monaco".

Got em all with 4:14 left

I'm gonna be born next week and I got 100% with 54:06 to spare

Nice quiz, finished with 1:49 left.

You must not have checked in a looooooooong time.

1:29 left

finished with 2:04

7% didn't guess france. excuse me what the ####

I don't know how to spell Liechtenstein!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I‘ve just realised that the diagonal red stripes in the U.K. flag aren‘t symmetrical. Everytime I see a Union Jack now, I think it‘s broken.

All done with 1:46 remaining at 10:55:05 am on January 14, 2019.

2:55 left. I could probably improve by a few seconds at least, considering that I did make a couple of typos

clocked 2:15 boi

Love these kind of quizzes but for a change it would be better if instead of the UK you have them seperate so you see the flags of England, Scotland an Wales

I finally got the Flag Badge. The hardest badge for me, and in my opinion. It took me a long time, but it also helped me to learn the flags better.

Yes, my first badge. Really fun quiz!

Add Turkey

...and ham, and pork, and beef, and bacon to my shopping list

add Cyprus and georgia

About 64 miles off the coast of Syria or 51 miles off the coast of Turkey.

Turkey Instambul ????

Never heard of this "Instambul" before. Is it popular?

The people who made these flags: "Hey, you know what would be a good idea? Let's make all of these flags the exact same but with different coloured stripes and sometimes a symbol in the middle!"

I got them all in only 2:14

Come on guys this is silly. You accept Russia, 77% of which is in Asia?

It's an Asian country. It's like saying Egypt is in Asia because of Sinai. Just don't get the logic.

And the majority of Egypt's population isn't in the Sinai

AHHH GOT IT WITH 0:05 SECONDS LEFT

Got it with 2:22

megalolz

(1:57 left for me and I was typing constantly - you're fast!)

That was the only one that took a lot of thought for me. Its the country in Europe with the least tourists, so it makes sense why it doesn't even come to mind

Where's Portugal?

Next to Spain. I've heard that it is a lovely place.

Jetpunk.com recognises Kosovo.

r/woooosh

Great quiz, but F Andorra for having a flag like all the Eastern Europeans. Threw me off.

I know like 10 off the top of my head hehehe

all of them
