Free Geography Flashcards: 978 Cards and All World Flags in 16 Languages
Ultimate Geography is a collaborative Anki deck about 205 sovereign states, 221 flags and 319 maps. 978 cards in 16 languages. Get it as structured JSON for learning in Anki or as a database for any other application.
The other day I was working on some little geography quiz for the project, and I asked my agent to come up with some questions. And it did. But when I checked the answers, some of them turned out to be inaccurate. Not “obviously wrong”, but wrong in a subtle way that would go unnoticed if I didn’t know what the right answer is. So I decided to find something better than my agent.
Ultimate Geography is a collaborative Anki deck about all 205 sovereign states, territories, oceans, seas and continents. 978 cards in total. Each card has a country, its capital, its flag and its map. It’s also available in 16 languages: English, Russian, German, French, Spanish and others. Ultimate Geography’s data is made available as structured JSON, so you can use it both in Anki, and as a reliable database for any other project.

With the extended version (included in the same release) there are two more: Country > Flag and Country > Map. They are all flagged, all continents and regions tagged so you can learn only Europe or Southeast Asia.
