Countries, capitals and flags of the World

Geography
A quite high quality deck for learning world countries, capitals and flags. I highly recommend setting the daily new card limit to 5. If you set it to 5, you'll get through this deck in a year, studying 7-8 minutes a day. I think it's a better long-term strategy for learning these for life. I generated the maps for this deck by Google Maps's API with a little script. It covers the whole world, with all capital cities and flags. The deck teaches several aspects: - What is the capital of X? - In which country is X? - Where is X's capital city on the map? [shows country map] - What city is this? [shows country map] - Which country has this flag? [shows flag] I omitted the "How does the flag of X look like?" aspect because I found it unnecessary/too hard. But you can easily add this aspect yourself with the desktop app. I generated this map back in 2012 when South Sudan hasn't existed, so South Sudan is missing, sorry about that. Also, the map for Georgia is faulty for some reason, but it's not a major inconvenience. I hope you like it – and sorry for not sharing it earlier.
