Belgium provinces quiz: the 11 places, their capitals and what each mode asks

A family who has just moved to Leuven learns the map of their new country. “Find the place” asks 11 places in random order: the ten provinces and Brussels. “Choose the capital” asks the ten provinces, even where the answer is the place’s own name, but not Brussels, which is the city itself; “Find it from its capital” asks the 7 in the last column.

  1. Flemish Brabant and Walloon Brabant both border Brussels: Flemish Brabant (Leuven) wraps round it, Walloon Brabant (Wavre) lies south.
  2. West Flanders (Bruges) is on the coast, East Flanders (Ghent) inland; Luxembourg here is the Belgian province (Arlon), not the country next door.
  3. In “Choose the capital”, Luxembourg’s four answers are Arlon, two of Namur, Liège, Wavre, Hasselt, Leuven and Mons, and always Antwerp, the only other capital with A.
  4. Brussels is small: zoom in with the buttons or Ctrl + scroll. Two wrong capitals reveal the answer; on the map, three wrong clicks do.

A round ends with, say, “Done! 9/11 in 1:15”, the misses listed underneath (in choice mode with their answer, “Limburg · Hasselt”), and “Practise the ones I missed” to replay only those.

How it works

  1. Choose a quiz: find the provinces by name, find each from its capital, or choose the capital among four.
  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

Is Brussels a province?
No, it is a region of its own, but it is asked with the provinces. It is small, so zoom in if you need to.
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 are only 7 places asked from their capitals?
Antwerp, Liège, Namur and Brussels share their names with their capitals, so “Find the one whose capital is Namur” would give the answer away. The other seven are asked, from Bruges to Arlon; “Choose the capital” asks the ten provinces, Antwerp, Liège and Namur too, but not Brussels, which is the city itself.
Do I need an account?
No. The quiz runs in your browser with nothing to install or sign up for, and your scores are not stored anywhere.
