SELECTED UN MEMBER-STATE FLAG QUIZ
Familiar flag colors are harder to recall precisely.
Study a local reconstruction of one selected flag for a few seconds, then rebuild a named stripe, field, cross, or disc from memory. The collection is deliberately limited to 24 UN member states and does not include territories or disputed-status entities.
Neutral scope: 24 selected UN member states only. Drawings preserve each flag’s customary proportions but remain local screen-oriented reconstructions, not official government files.
How to play the flag color quiz
- Choose the daily challenge for the same five selected flags as other players, or start random practice.
- Study the local reconstruction and focus on the named color while the countdown runs.
- After that color resets to gray wherever it occurs, adjust hue, saturation, and lightness from memory.
- Compare your reconstruction with the game reference and receive up to 100 points per flag.
The member-state name remains visible because this challenge tests color memory, not geography recognition. It does not ask players to identify borders, governments, capitals, or sovereignty claims.
A deliberately narrow, neutral collection
All 24 entries are UN member states shown with neutral English short names: France, Germany, Italy, Ireland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Ukraine, Poland, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Estonia, Lithuania, Armenia, Japan, Bangladesh, Palau, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway, and Switzerland.
The mode intentionally excludes territories, dependencies, disputed-status entities, partially recognized states, subnational flags, historical flags, military flags, and political organizations. It also avoids continent labels, which are unnecessary for color play and can be debatable for border-region states.
Proportions, construction, and color
The renderer preserves distinct aspect ratios instead of forcing every design into one rectangle. It also uses separate construction data for Nordic crosses, the discs of Japan, Bangladesh, and Palau, and the square Swiss flag. Repeated target colors are explicit—for example, both red outer bands change together for Austria.
Colors remain consistent game-specific screen references. A national flag may instead be defined through legislation, construction sheets, textile or print systems, and physical reproduction standards. This game does not claim that one rounded HSL value is the only official specification.
The score compares the displayed game reference with your selected screen color in Lab space using Delta E 76. It is a memory-game score, not a legal, diplomatic, or flag-manufacturing assessment.
Flag color quiz FAQ
What political scope does the game use?
The collection contains only 24 selected UN member states. It deliberately omits territories, dependencies, disputed-status entities, observer states, and historical or organizational flags.
Why are there no continent categories?
Continental classification is not needed for the color mechanic and can vary between classification systems. Every item therefore uses the same neutral “Selected UN member state” label.
Are these official government files?
No. They are local SVG reconstructions for a memory game. Their proportions and major geometry are modeled separately, while screen colors remain game references.
Does the game take a political position?
No political or legal claim is intended. Inclusion is based only on UN membership, and the game does not rank states, discuss borders, or represent governments.
Can I practice without waiting?
Yes. Random Practice selects another five flags immediately and does not replace the daily sequence.
