AERIALEGuess the country from above
You start over a field, a beach or a mountain range. Name the country before the camera shows its full outline.
197 countries
Africa 54, Asia 48, Europe 46, North America 23, Oceania 14 and South America 12, from Russia to Vatican City. Each round starts on a recognisable landscape and zooms out in five steps until the whole country is in view.
Clues in the landscape
- Field shapes: long thin strips, big circles from irrigation, or small irregular plots each belong to different farming traditions.
- Colour: red soils, white salt flats, dark forest, rice terraces.
- Borders that show: some borders are visible from space because land use changes right at the line.
