World map quiz: 236 places, one continent at a time, then the whole world

A seventh-grade class has to find the countries of the world on a blank map. With Map “World” and Quiz “Find the place”, the quiz asks 236 places — every country plus territories such as Greenland, Puerto Rico and Hong Kong — each once, in random order. A continent at a time is easier to start with: South America has 14 places, Africa 56.

  1. A name appears above the map: click that place. A right click at the first try scores a point; after three wrong clicks the place is shown and counted as missed. Skip sends a question to the end.
  2. Russia, Türkiye and Cyprus are asked on Europe’s map, Egypt on Africa’s, Mexico and the Caribbean on North America’s. Eight territories, such as French Polynesia and Guam, are only on the world map.
  3. At the end you see the score (right at the first try, out of all asked), the time and the places missed; “Practise the ones I missed” asks only those again.
  4. Zoom in (Ctrl + scroll, or ⌘ + scroll on a Mac) for small islands and states; the smallest get a circle to click.

Europe 52444947
Africa 56485454
Asia 49444647
North and Central America 38262923
South America 14131312
Oceania 19151514
Middle East 17151617
Central America and the Caribbean 35222420

The usual mix-ups on the world map: Niger and Nigeria, Congo-Kinshasa and Congo-Brazzaville, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau and Equatorial Guinea, Sudan and South Sudan, Dominica and the Dominican Republic. The capital quiz has fewer questions because it leaves out places whose capital gives the name away (Mexico City, Kuwait City, Tunis) or that have none.

How it works

  1. Choose the map: the world, a continent or a country, and find places or 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 just one continent?
Yes — choose Europe, Africa, Asia, the Americas or Oceania under Map, or open the page for that continent.
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.
How many countries are in the world map quiz?
236 places: every country plus territories such as Greenland, Puerto Rico and Hong Kong. The flag quiz with “Countries only (no territories)” ticked asks 197: the 193 UN members, Vatican City, Palestine, Kosovo and Taiwan; without the tick, 229.
Can I practise capitals and flags too?
Yes, under Quiz. “Find it from its capital” names a capital and you click the country (192 questions on the world map); “Choose the capital” lights up a country and offers four capitals (208); “Find the flag” shows a flag (197 countries). Flags are asked on the world, continent and region maps. Indonesia and Monaco, and Romania and Chad, have near-identical flags, so a click on either counts.
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.
