      What Is the Country Wheel?

      The country wheel is a random country generator with all 195 countries – the 193 UN member states plus the two observer states, Vatican City and Palestine. Spin it and you get one country at random.

      With 195 slices, every country has about a 0.5% chance per spin, so the results feel genuinely surprising. For smaller groups, use the quick wheels for the European Union, South America, the G20 or a travel bucket list.
