What is a Random Country Picker?
A random country picker is a spinning wheel that selects a country from your list for quizzes, travel inspiration, or classroom activities. Each listed country gets an equal chance regardless of population or size.
About this free random country wheel
Explore the map with a spin. This Random Country Wheel ships with eight well-known nations so you can start immediately. Paste a full world list, a single continent, or places still on your bucket list.
Teachers project the wheel, spin, and ask for capitals, currencies, or foods. Travel groups eliminate countries until a trip destination remains. Because slices are equal, a small country you add manually is not disadvantaged versus a large one—geography size never enters the algorithm.
Use spin history to track which countries already appeared in today’s quiz. Import CSV country lists for semester-long units.
How to use Random Country Wheel

Customize the look
Pick a wheel style (Classic, Sunset, Ocean, Candy, and more), turn sound on or off, and enable auto-remove winners for elimination rounds.

Spin the wheel
Press the Spin button or hit Space. A fair random winner is chosen before the animation; the wheel then decelerates smoothly until the pointer stops on that result.
