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! http://www.geographyolympics.com/challenge.php Have fun! Alice Alice C.
