About this quiz
Twenty four sets of three, four for each continent, drawn from Ribbia's 197 countries. Each round deals twelve of them.
- Countries that span two continents, such as Russia, Turkey and Egypt, are never used, so every set has exactly one answer.
- Central America and the Caribbean count as North America.
- A miss shows the right continent before the next set appears.

Note on the data. Countries and continents are Ribbia's shared list, checked on 3 October 2026 against the United Nations member and observer lists and the M49 regions. The sets are dealt from that list by a fixed shuffle, and a test checks that the three countries of every set share the continent given.
