Worldle is one of those games that looks simple but can trip you up fast. You get a black silhouette of a country and suddenly your brain turns into static.
On August 21, 2025, the puzzle featured a country that isn’t massive, but its shape is just irregular enough to confuse you.

Hints for Today
- Hint 1: Located in Southeast Europe, part of the Balkans region.
- Hint 2: Borders Croatia, Serbia, and Montenegro.
- Hint 3: Known for its capital city, Sarajevo, which hosted the Winter Olympics in 1984.
- Hint 4: Its flag is bright blue with yellow stars and a triangle.
Answer for August 21, 2025
Today’s Worldle solution is Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The silhouette might have tripped you up because it’s kind of jagged, not a neat outline like Italy’s boot or France’s hexagon. Plus, the country is tucked in the Balkans, a region where several smaller nations are packed close together.
Why Bosnia and Herzegovina Can Be Tricky
- Shape confusion: Its borders are squiggly and not super iconic.
- Regional density: Surrounded by multiple small countries, so you may have guessed Croatia or Serbia first.
- Name length: Even if you knew the right country, typing out the full name might’ve slowed you down.
Fun Facts About Bosnia and Herzegovina ????
- Sarajevo is sometimes called the “Jerusalem of Europe” because it’s home to multiple religious communities.
- The country has one of the last remaining rainforests in Europe (Perućica).
- Cevapi (grilled meat rolls) are a must-try food if you ever visit.
If Bosnia and Herzegovina stumped you today, you’re definitely not alone—this is one of those countries that shows up in Worldle now and then just to humble everyone. Tomorrow’s puzzle could be easier… or it could throw us right back into geography chaos.
Until then, at least you leveled up your Balkan geography knowledge. ????
