First things first... World Geography: What do we Already Know?

We hear about the soccer teams of each of the 32 countries competing in South Africa, but how much do we really know about the countries themselves? Each nation has a unique story- not just for their soccer team- but in the country they represent. Just look at the political representation- republics, monarchies, and even single party communist states, are all present in South Africa. Different languages, accents ideologies, and ethnicities all come together in one place.

Let's take a quick quiz- assessing what we already know. Try your hand at locating the nations competing in this year's World Cup. Don't play too much though- you can do that later.

    Love the game, but I won't lie, it definately stumped me a few times. I really like how you really need to learn about these countries in order to complete the game. You do that by clicking on each flag earlier, very cool.
