A small expedition, every day

Meridian is an independent geography game. The idea is simple: five relaxed minutes a day that leave you knowing the world a little better — where cities really are, how countries compare, and who borders whom.

How the puzzles are made

Each expedition is generated from the calendar date, so everyone gets the same route without needing an account or a server. The generator rotates through every country and hundreds of cities before repeating, and only ranks countries whose figures are clearly different.

Where the data comes from

Country shapes, capitals, cities and population estimates come fromNatural Earth, a public-domain map dataset maintained by volunteers and supported by the North American Cartographic Information Society. Land areas are calculated from those boundaries. Population figures are estimates — mostly for 2019 — and may differ from the latest national statistics.

Borders follow Natural Earth’s default world view. Showing a border or a name is not a statement on any territorial dispute. Meridian includes the 193 UN member states plus Vatican City, Palestine, Kosovo and Taiwan.
