As Opera continue to kill off everything their users hold dear, they have announced they are shutting down the MyOpera community.

Your world countries game is an exceptional procrastinator. It certainly feels like sporcle for professionals.

I played a similar game around the early 90s on our first PC, so I did fairly well on this game. Unfortunately there are quite a few new countries now and I have no idea where they are, especially the ones in eastern Europe. On a side note, I was unaware that SVGs could be interactive.

Heh, I had the same comments back in 2007! "World countries, island states & arbitrarily named disputed regions" wasn't particularly catchy.

Disappointed that Tibet isn't on your map.

I had a similar thought about Svalbard, at least Tasmania has its own flag.

The 'world countries' game did the rounds at the office. Far too addictive!

Although, it's a bit depressing that I don't seem to be getting any better at identifying the countries :-(
