World Great Circle Daily Challenge
DirectionsClick START to begin. You will be shown a route between 2 world capital cities and the starting country will be shown as the upper left cell in the grid. No route will have less than 5 total countries. A new route will appear each day at midnight central US time.
Starting with the 2nd country (the first country is always your departure country), name the countries (see NAMING NOTE below) in order whose land territory (including dependent territories) you fly over to your destination. Capital routes are from the city centers NOT the airports. You are answering based on when you FIRST fly over them (occasionally you may fly over a country, then another, then the previous country again, do NOT list the first country twice). Each country is only answered once. The last country is generally the destination country, but not always (as you may have crossed over it previously then another country, then back over it to arrive).
NAMING NOTE – Most disputed territories are considered to be part of the country that administers them (such as Western Sahara as part of Morocco), unless there is joint administration in which case the territory is not counted as any country. To answer countries like ‘Guinea’ or ‘Niger’ put a ‘.’ (period at the end) as they must be typed to enter another country, similar ‘UK.’ (with the period) can be typed for United Kingdom, as it must be typed to enter Ukraine.
Trying a daily quiz for the first time which changes each day…leaderboard is new each day too. Will have a more involved great circles quiz soon involving world capitals.
