Cuba provinces quiz: 16 places to find and 15 capitals to choose

A traveller planning a road trip from Havana to Santiago de Cuba learns the provinces. “Find the place” asks the 15 provinces and the Isle of Youth, 16 places, once each in a random order. Havana is the smallest piece, between Artemisa and Mayabeque.

  1. “Find it from its capital” finds the provinces by name here, with a note: eleven of the 16 capitals share their province’s name, which leaves too few to ask.
  2. In “Choose the capital”, Villa Clara’s four answers can include Santa Clara, Sancti Spíritus and Santiago de Cuba, all with an S, so read to the end of the name.
  3. A wrong click flashes the province you hit in red with its name; the third miss shows the answer blinking and counts as missed.
Place Capital in “Choose the capital”
Villa Clara Santa Clara
Granma Bayamo
Mayabeque San José de las Lajas
Isle of Youth Nueva Gerona
Pinar del Río, Artemisa, Matanzas, Cienfuegos, Sancti Spíritus, Ciego de Ávila the same name as the province
Camagüey, Las Tunas, Holguín, Santiago de Cuba, Guantánamo the same name as the province
Havana not asked: the city itself

“Done! 14/16 in 1:52” lists the two missed, say Las Tunas and Holguín, neighbours in the east, with “Practise the ones I missed” for a round of those two.

How it works

  1. Choose a quiz: find the provinces by name, or see each one highlighted and choose its 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

Are Artemisa and Mayabeque on it?
Yes — the two provinces formed in 2011 from the old Havana province are drawn, and the Isle of Youth is asked as a place of its own.
Why does “Find it from its capital” ask the names?
Most Cuban provinces share their name with their capital, so naming it would give the answer away: that quiz finds the provinces by name instead and says so. “Choose the capital” asks all but Havana, the city itself — Bayamo and Nueva Gerona included.
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.
What is the capital of Granma?
Bayamo. Granma, Villa Clara (Santa Clara), Mayabeque (San José de las Lajas) and the Isle of Youth (Nueva Gerona) are the four whose capital has another name; the other eleven provinces are named after their capital, and Havana 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.
