Europe packs a lot of countries into a small space, from Russia, the biggest country on Earth, to Vatican City, the smallest. This quiz asks all 47 one at a time. Tap the right one and it pops into color; tap the wrong one and you see its name.
The six microstates (Andorra, Liechtenstein, Malta, Monaco, San Marino and Vatican City) get a ring marker, so you can tap them without zooming. The Balkans are where most points are lost, so give them a second round in Capitals mode.
