The quiz below, Geography Olympics, is a commercial site, but it is
wonderful. You are given 200 seconds to identify 10 randomly selected
nations around the world. The list changes every day.  I did a wretched job
of it...beyond the quiz I found the site not so bad. A resource for atlases
and globes, etc., and they seem to have a nice attitude about geography,
how bad can that be!
