CIA Factbook info?

I like it.
If you are needing information to display (such as flags, world, national, and state maps, continent, etc), you can always use:

http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/index.html

Use perl/python and rip the info. For the most part, it is probably close to accurate.

Some time ago, I was going to build a multi-tier monopoly game that would allow you to move up only if you conquerored lower tiers. Each board was to represent a state -> nation -> continent -> world. The idea on that was to use geo and cultural info for the boards.

Thanks for telling but already knew of it. For flags i prefer to use sodipodi flags collection and for maps i'm already using it but not directly as they need some preprocessing to make sure each country has a different color, etc

As far as I know, there is no other Linux application that does what KGeography does, so this should prove very useful.

At the moment, the quizzes do not tell you which questions you got right or wrong do they?

No, it does not tell you which questions you failed, i am currently thinking how to implement it, my options are:

1 - Tell the error when you fail the answer
2 - Tell the error when you fail the answer and tell the correct answer
3 - Tell all the errors you made once you answer all the questions
4 - Tell all the errors you made once you answer all the questions and tell the correct answers
5 - Don't let you pass a question until you answer it correctly (greying out previously failed answers)

Right now what i like the more is 3 and 5, any suggestion?

Personally I prefer methods 2 or 5, but that's just my opinion.

Another feature that you could aim to implement in the future could be a sort of 'practice' mode that allows you to click on any country to see some data on it, perhaps data that's updated from the net?

Beside this functionallity, what about making sthg. like an "fly-over", where all interesting infos are asked?
And at the end, you get a summary of your knowledge?

This way would connect the informations in a more visual way..

P.e.:
starting in denmark, showing the capitol-city and the east and north-sea and legoland(a must for childrens, i think ;-)).
Going on to germany over hamburg, showing the river elbe and perhaps some important buildings...etc
