Honduras departments quiz: 18 to find, 11 capitals to place, and the Lempira trap

A ninth-grader in Houston whose family comes from San Pedro Sula learns the departments before a Central America project. “Find the place” asks all 18 in random order; “Find it from its capital” asks 11, as seven capitals give their department away; “Choose the capital” lights each of the 18 and offers four capitals.

  1. The trap: Lempira’s capital is Gracias, while Gracias a Dios, the large department in the far east, has Puerto Lempira. Read the prompt to the end before you click.
  2. Tegucigalpa is in Francisco Morazán, not in a department named after it; San Pedro Sula, the second city, is the capital of Cortés on the north coast.
  3. The smallest targets, the Bay Islands and Valle, are still about 50 and 60 pixels across in an 800-pixel-wide quiz: no circles, but Zoom in helps on a phone.
  4. In “Choose the capital”, Copán’s question may put Santa Bárbara or San Pedro Sula beside Santa Rosa de Copán: the fourth answer starts with the same letter where one does.
Department Capital Asked in “Find it from its capital”
Atlántida La Ceibayes
Bay Islands Roatányes
Choluteca Cholutecano — same name
Colón Trujilloyes
Comayagua Comayaguano — same name
Copán Santa Rosa de Copánno — the name gives it away
Cortés San Pedro Sulayes
El Paraíso Yuscarányes
Francisco Morazán Tegucigalpayes
Gracias a Dios Puerto Lempirayes
Intibucá La Esperanzayes
La Paz La Pazno — same name
Lempira Graciasyes
Ocotepeque Ocotepequeno — same name
Olancho Juticalpayes
Santa Bárbara Santa Bárbarano — same name
Valle Nacaomeyes
Yoro Yorono — same name

The round ends “Done! 16/18 in 2:05”, say: answers right at the first try out of 18, then the time. Below, “Missed: 2” lists the departments to revise, and “Practise the ones I missed” asks only those, in a new order.

How it works

  1. Choose a quiz: find the departments 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

Are the Bay Islands included?
Yes — the Bay Islands (Islas de la Bahía) are a department of their own off the north coast, with Roatán as capital; zoom in or click any of the islands.
Which capitals are asked?
In “Find it from its capital”, the 11 that do not give the answer away, such as La Ceiba for Atlántida and San Pedro Sula for Cortés. Choluteca, Comayagua, La Paz, Ocotepeque, Santa Bárbara and Yoro share their department’s name and Santa Rosa de Copán contains Copán, so they are left out. “Choose the capital” asks all 18.
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.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes — tap the departments; pinch or use the + button to zoom, and drag to move the map. In “Choose the capital” the four answers are large buttons.
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.
