Pick a Random Country

Click Generate Random Country to see a random country with its flag, capital, population, and location on the map, then click the arrow for extra data. Narrow by region for a smaller pool.

Names, flags, capitals, populations, regions, languages, currencies, and borders come from an open, community-maintained country dataset compiled from public sources such as governments, international organizations, and Wikipedia.

Use it in a classroom quiz, start a research project, consider a new holiday destination, pick a language to learn, or refresh your general knowledge. It is up to you.

Challenge students to research a random country and bring an interesting fact to class. Use the Flag Quiz and Capitals Quiz for a quick challenge, narrowing by region and difficulty to match your curriculum and class level. Build a map of the countries students have visited and discuss experiences and family heritage.

Both work the same way. Whether you call it a country wheel, country picker wheel, country roulette, or random country selector, the output is the same: a country chosen at random from every recognized country in the world.
