This geography quiz will test you on capital cities, national languages, geographic formations, and world wonders. We have even inserted a couple of questions about national anthems within this quiz. Go ahead and challenge your geographic knowledge here but don't be surprised if you fail.
It is very rare for people to pass this geography quiz and it is even harder for someone to get every single question correct. For example, do you know what the official language of Tahiti is? Do you know what the longest river in Ireland is? If you are a real geography expert, however, then you might know the answers to these questions and more. Getting a perfect score is perhaps an ambitious target to set. You might want to re-evaluate your objectives here if that's your goal. If you can do that, then you have a larger amount of geography knowledge than the average person does. So go ahead and give this quiz your best shot. Maybe you'll surprise us and do really well!
