Website review: Around the world in just seconds!

How much do you know about the world you are living in? Or how many countries are there and what are their capitals?

These and many more such questions are often left unanswered by most of us; although information such as these are some basic and quite significant things that we should know, but we still lack the guts to remember it all. Let’s admit that we don’t often get all the answer to these common questions at one place either and therefore, we have to go through a lot of different sources.

At such times, www.flagpictutres.com comes handy as a single source of answers about all the countries around the globe.

Flagpictures — is a website that focuses ‘everything’ about countries around the world. While many websites on the internet claim to provide the name and the flag of the country, Flagpictures takes you on a journey through each and every country, from its picture of the flag to the meaning behind its flag, the site covers it all. Yes, the site claims to have all the countries from the globe in its database.

Searching or going through a country’s information is easy, you can type the initials of the country on the homepage or go through categories from the top right, such as country flags and world capital cities. You can explore in detail from the bottom of the page by selecting from the sections country’s national anthem, its composers, military flags, national symbols, colour codes, regional codes; or you can even read about any country’s intergovernmental organisations, largest and smallest countries, countries with most cities, populated or least populated cities, currencies, flowers, and much more, the site has put everything neatly on the homepage.

Apart from that the site also covers a number of images and illustrations to help you understand better about these countries. What I like most about the site is its clean interface, with no clutter to make you confused. And no ads, means no distraction, so you can scroll through the page easily. The site can prove very helpful for general knowledge but, most importantly, in your school projects.

So if you have questions and queries about countries, fret no more, visit:****www.flagpictures.com
