Example

Chile’s 16 regions and their capitals in three quiz modes, Arica to Punta Arenas

A student going on an exchange to Concepción learns the regions before the flight. “Find the place” asks all 16 in random order (“Find Ñuble”); “Choose the capital” lights one region and offers four capitals; “Find it from its capital” gives the capital (“Find the one whose capital is Temuco”) and asks 12.

  1. The usual slips: Los Ríos (Valdivia) and Los Lagos (Puerto Montt), side by side in the south, and the order Maule, Ñuble, Biobío in the middle.
  2. The central regions are small: use Zoom in, or Ctrl + scroll, to hit O’Higgins and Valparaíso.
  3. On the map you have three tries; at the third miss the region blinks and counts as missed. Among four capitals, the second wrong pick shows the right one.
Region, north to south Capital Asked in “Find it from its capital”
Arica y Parinacota Aricano — the name gives it away
Tarapacá Iquiqueyes
Antofagasta Antofagastano — same name
Atacama Copiapóyes
Coquimbo La Serenayes
Valparaíso Valparaísono — same name
Santiago Metropolitan Region Santiagono — the name gives it away
O’Higgins Rancaguayes
Maule Talcayes
Ñuble Chillányes
Biobío Concepciónyes
La Araucanía Temucoyes
Los Ríos Valdiviayes
Los Lagos Puerto Monttyes
Aysén Coyhaiqueyes
Magallanes Punta Arenasyes

The round ends “Done! 14/16 in 1:52”, say — 14 right at the first try out of 16, and the time — with the regions missed listed below; “Practise the ones I missed” plays only those.

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 12 regions?
It leaves out the four whose capital names the region: Antofagasta, Valparaíso, Arica y Parinacota (Arica) and Santiago Metropolitan Region (Santiago), as the question would give the answer away. “Choose the capital” asks all 16.
Can I print a Chile map for a test?
The quiz is on screen only. For paper, the printable map of Chile with its regions and capitals has a numbered worksheet: the 16 regions to name, with their capitals, and the answers on the second page.
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.
