Argentina provinces quiz: 23 provinces, Buenos Aires city and each capital

An exchange student heading to Córdoba for a semester learns the map first. “Find the place” asks all 24 places in random order: the 23 provinces and the City of Buenos Aires, the small speck on the Río de la Plata. “Choose the capital” asks 23, every province, with the capital from this list among four answers.

  1. “Find it from its capital” asks only 9: La Plata, Paraná, Resistencia, Santa Rosa, Posadas, Viedma, Rawson, Ushuaia and Río Gallegos. The other 15 are greyed, their capital repeating the name.
  2. In “Choose the capital”, wrong answers come from the six nearest provinces: for Buenos Aires, two of Santa Rosa, Paraná, Córdoba, San Luis, Santa Fe and Viedma, plus La Rioja, the only other L.
  3. Patagonia catches people out: the capitals are Viedma, Rawson and Río Gallegos, not Bariloche or Comodoro Rivadavia, which are never offered.
  4. Tucumán, the smallest province, sits between Salta, Santiago del Estero and Catamarca; zoom in for it and for the City of Buenos Aires.

The bar ends with, say, “Done! 20/24 in 3:40”: 20 found at the first try out of 24, and the time. The four missed are listed underneath, and “Practise the ones I missed” replays only those, in a new order.

How it works

  1. Choose whether to find the places or find them from their capitals.
  2. Click or tap each place as its name appears; zoom in for the small ones.
  3. At the end, see your time and score, then practise only the ones you missed.

Frequently asked questions

Can I quiz the capitals?
Yes — choose “Choose the capital” to see each place highlighted and pick its capital, or “Find it from its capital” to be given the capital and find the place.
How does it work?
A name appears above the map: click or tap that place. Right answers turn green; after three misses the answer is shown. Skipped places come back at the end, and the ones you missed can be practised again.
Why does “Find it from its capital” ask only 9 provinces?
It leaves out the provinces whose capital has the same name, such as Córdoba, Mendoza or Salta, and those whose capital contains it (San Miguel de Tucumán, San Salvador de Jujuy), since the question would give the answer away. “Choose the capital” asks all 23 provinces.
Is the City of Buenos Aires in the quiz?
Yes, in “Find the place”, as the 24th place: it is tiny, so zoom in or use its circle. It is not asked in the capitals quizzes, being a city of its own; La Plata is the capital of Buenos Aires province.
Do I need an account?
No. The quiz runs in your browser with nothing to sign up for, and your scores are not stored anywhere.
