One continent at a time
Africa has the most countries, 54, then Asia 48, Europe 44, North America 23, Oceania 14 and South America 12. Tap one and every spin picks from its countries. For countries spin the wheel with the whole world at once, keep All.
Capital quizzes and world projects
Spin, cover the card and ask for the capital: a few countries have two, and the card says which is which. For reports or a cooking night round the world, switch to Elimination so no country comes up twice.
Tips
- For a nationality game, spin a country and name its people: Chile gives Chilean, Thailand gives Thai.
Questions and answers
Which countries are on the wheel?
The 193 member states of the United Nations and its two observer states, Vatican City and Palestine: 195 in all. Places that are neither, such as Taiwan or Kosovo, are not on it. Add them with My list.
Can I spin only European countries?
Yes. For a Europe country wheel, tap Europe: every spin picks from its 44 countries, Albania to Vatican City, and the wheel shows 24 of them at a time. Every continent works the same way.
Why is Cyprus in Asia and Russia in Europe?
The continents follow the United Nations M49 scheme, which puts Cyprus in Western Asia and Russia in Eastern Europe. Other maps draw the lines differently, so read these as one official answer.
