Geography trivia questions
The Geography branch of Rewind has 16 questions, and not one of them is pinned to a year. They are about things rather than moments, which the picker sums up as “Places, rivers, borders and flags”.
When the Geography questions happen
With no years attached, there are no eras to count. Each question stands on what you know, not on when it happened, and the fact line shown after every answer carries the rest.
Reading the Geography questions
Questions here open in a few familiar ways: 10 start with “Which”, 2 start with “Lake”, 2 start with “The”. Four choices are shown each time, and the fact line that follows is at most 21 words. In 10 cases the answer is just one word.
A source article stands behind each one; nothing goes in unchecked.
A taste of Geography
Try these two. They come from all over the Geography bank and were not in the daily ten around the build date of this page.
Question: What is the capital of Australia?
Answer: Canberra. It was built from scratch as a compromise, because Sydney and Melbourne both wanted the job.
The wrong choices on the card were Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane.
Checked against Canberra (Wikipedia).
Question: Which country flies the only national flag that is not a rectangle?
Answer: Nepal. Two stacked triangles, and it is also the only national flag taller than it is wide.
The wrong choices on the card were Switzerland, Bhutan, and Sri Lanka.
Checked against Flag of Nepal (Wikipedia).
Play only Geography
Rewind lets you narrow the day to what you like. Here that means opening Branches, ticking Geography with the other History branches, and pressing Play these. A day needs ten questions in the selection, and this branch has 16 of its own.
Scoring and the clock are in How to play Rewind.
