Philippines regions quiz: all 18 regions and their regional centers

A Grade 4 pupil reviews the regions for Araling Panlipunan. “Find the place” asks all 18 regions once each, in random order, the Negros Island Region included. “Choose the capital” lights up each region and offers four regional centers; “Find it from its capital” asks 17, leaving out Metro Manila, as Manila would give it away.

  1. Easy to mix up: Cagayan Valley (Tuguegarao) and Northern Mindanao (Cagayan de Oro); Zamboanga Peninsula, centered on Pagadian; Western Visayas (Iloilo City) and the Negros Island Region (Bacolod).
  2. In “Choose the capital” two of the three wrong answers come from the six nearest regions, so most wrong answers are centers of neighbouring regions; the second wrong pick shows the answer.
  3. On the map, a right click turns the region green with its name; three misses show the answer blinking in orange.

The end shows the regions right at the first try out of 18 and your time, and lists the ones missed — in choice mode with their centers, “Bicol Region · Legazpi” — ready for “Practise the ones I missed”.

How it works

  1. Choose whether to find the places or find them from their 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 the capitals?
Yes — choose “Choose the capital” to see each place highlighted and pick its capital, or “Find it from its capital” to be given the capital and find the place.
Is the Negros Island Region included?
Yes — it is one of the 18 regions, with Bacolod as its center, between Western Visayas (Iloilo City) and Central Visayas (Cebu City).
Is there a map of the Philippines to print?
Yes — the blank map of the Philippines among the related tools prints the same 18 regions, or the provinces: blank, with the names, or numbered as a worksheet with an answer page.
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.
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.
