Dominican Republic quiz: 32 places, 14 capitals to find, and two Santo Domingos

A teacher at a bilingual school in Santiago de los Caballeros sets the quiz as homework. “Find the place” asks the 31 provinces and the National District, 32 places, once each in a random order; the National District is the smallest, inside the province of Santo Domingo on the south coast.

  1. “Find it from its capital” leaves out the 18 provinces whose capital carries their name, such as La Vega or Santiago (Santiago de los Caballeros); they stay pale and a click on them does nothing.
  2. In “Choose the capital”, the National District’s wrong answers come from the six nearest (Santo Domingo Este, San Cristóbal, Monte Plata, Baní, Cotuí, San José de Ocoa) and one starting with S.
  3. Provinces named after people have capitals to learn: Hermanas Mirabal → Salcedo, Monseñor Nouel → Bonao, María Trinidad Sánchez → Nagua, Sánchez Ramírez → Cotuí.
