Knights, megalithic temples, and the Mediterranean's most historic micro-nation.
Malta's megalithic temples are over 5,600 years old — predating both Stonehenge and the Egyptian pyramids as the oldest free-standing structures in the world. This tiny Mediterranean archipelago has been shaped by Phoenicians, Romans, Arabs, Normans, the Knights of St. John, Napoleon, and the British Empire.
Each round presents 10 randomized multiple-choice questions drawn from a pool of 50, so every playthrough is different. You get instant feedback with explanations after each answer, plus a shareable score at the end.
You'll explore Malta's ancient temples, the Great Siege of 1565, Valletta's Baroque architecture, the Maltese language's unique Semitic-Latin blend, WWII's George Cross award, and the islands' role as a filming location for Game of Thrones and Gladiator.
Maltese is descended from Siculo-Arabic and is the only Semitic language written in the Latin script. It has a Maghrebi Arabic base with heavy Italian and English influences.
King George VI awarded the entire island of Malta the George Cross in 1942 for heroism during WWII bombing. Malta is the only country to receive this honor, and the cross appears on its national flag.
Malta's medieval walled city Mdina was used as King's Landing in Season 1, the Azure Window on Gozo served as the Dothraki wedding location, and Fort Ricasoli doubled as the Red Keep gates.
