How It Works

• 45-country database: All 45 sovereign European nations are included, organized into four sub-regions.
• Equal probability: Every country in the filtered pool has the same chance of selection — no weighting toward larger or more famous nations.
• Flag images: Each result fetches the country flag from flagcdn.com for instant visual recognition.
• Capital and metadata: Each result shows the capital city, sub-region label, and EU badge where applicable.
• Wheel customization: In the Wheel tab, use the country checkbox dropdown to include or exclude specific countries from the spin.
• In-browser execution: All randomization happens locally — no data is sent to or stored on any server.
