How the U.S. States Flag Quiz works

A state flag is shown on its own and you get four state names to choose from. One of them is correct and the other three are drawn from the same pool of fifty state flags. A correct answer scores a point and moves you on; a wrong one shows the right answer before the next flag. You can skip any question and see the answer, and the round always ends with your score.

Fifty flags, half of them on a blue seal

Many state flags are a state seal on a blue field, which is exactly what makes them hard to tell apart: the difference is in the detail of the seal. The quiz pairs every flag with three similar choices, so the round forces you to look at the details instead of guessing by color.

How it relates to the map quiz

The U.S. states map quiz tests the same states by shape and position instead of by flag. Recognizing a flag and placing a state are different skills, and practicing both is a thorough way to learn all fifty.

Where to start

The countries of the world flag quiz covers national flags if you want to switch to the world pool, or the North America flag quiz if you want the countries and territories around the states.
