Hungary counties quiz: 19 counties and Budapest, and the six seats that start with S

An Erasmus student starting a term in Szeged learns the counties before arriving. “Find the place” asks all 20 shapes: the 19 counties and Budapest. “Find it from its capital” asks 13 county seats; “Choose the capital” lights a county and offers four seats, 18 questions, as Pest County has no seat in the quiz and Budapest is the city itself.

  1. The S trap in “Choose the capital”: Szeged, Székesfehérvár, Szolnok, Salgótarján, Szekszárd and Szombathely all start with S, so any of them can be another’s fourth answer.
  2. Tolna (Szekszárd) and Baranya (Pécs) sit side by side in the south; Vas (Szombathely) and Zala (Zalaegerszeg) side by side in the far west.
  3. Budapest is the smallest target, about 44 pixels across in an 800-pixel-wide quiz, inside Pest County: click the city for Budapest and the ring around it for Pest.

A round with no slip ends “Done! 20/20 in 1:48” and “Perfect — no mistakes!”; otherwise the counties missed are listed, and “Practise the ones I missed” replays only those.

How it works

  1. Choose a quiz: find the counties 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 Pest County in the capitals quiz?
No — it is governed from Budapest, outside the county, so it has no seat of its own to ask. It is in the find-the-place quiz.
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 Békés, Győr-Moson-Sopron and Zala not asked from their seats?
Their seats — Békéscsaba, Győr and Zalaegerszeg, like Szolnok and Veszprém — contain the county’s name, so the question would give it away. “Find it from its capital” asks the other 13; “Choose the capital” asks all 18 counties with a seat.
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.
