Description: Quiz, consisting in guessing the country corresponding to a given national flag. The countries to be used during the quiz depend on the .fqz file selected (you may choose a such file by using the Open command in the Quiz menu). To do the quiz: Select a file, change the country name language to German if you prefer, push the Start button and for each flag displayed, select the country name in the combobox and push Check. The number of correct and false answers and the success percentage are updated after each answer.
Files provided include: flags of the world (all and a 25 countries selection), flags of Europe (all and a 25 countries selection), flags of Africa, Asia, North and Central America, South America, Australia and Oceania.
In the Tools menu, you find an item that you may use to create your own .fqz files. Choose one of the included files as a template (if your quiz should include countries from all around the world, choose world.fqz), select the countries, that you wish be part of the quiz and push the Save button. If you want, you can register .fqz files being associated with FlagQuiz; you then can run a given quiz by simply double-clicking the .fqz file.
