A fun way to learn about where places are in the world is to take advantage of the plethora of free geography games on the Internet.  One such game is “How Well Do You Know Your World?”  The object of the game is to accurately locate places on the world map as quickly as possible.  The game starts out easy with major world cities and then progressively becomes harder.  When you click on the map, the distance from your mouse click to the actual location is calculated.  Interesting trivia about the location accompanies each question.

      This is another game that involves naming the countries of the world. It has an incredibly sleek interface and I like how it uses the full, formal, names of counties e.g. Italian Republic instead of Italy.
