Romania counties quiz: 42 places, 18 capitals to find, and Bucharest inside Ilfov

“Find the place” asks 42: the 41 counties and Bucharest, drawn as a place of its own inside Ilfov. “Find it from its capital” asks the 18 in the table and greys the rest: 23 counties have a seat that shares or holds their name (Arad, Iași, Timișoara, Cluj-Napoca), and Bucharest has none. “Choose the capital” asks 41, all but Bucharest.

  1. Bucharest is the smallest place on the map, with Ilfov around it: zoom in with the buttons, Ctrl + scroll or two fingers before you click.
  2. “Find the one whose capital is Buftea” means Ilfov, the ring around Bucharest — not Bucharest itself.
  3. In “Choose the capital”, Covasna offers Sfântu Gheorghe, two of the six nearest seats (Brașov, Focșani, Bacău, Miercurea Ciuc, Ploiești, Buzău) and one more starting with S.
  4. The end shows your score out of 42, 18 or 41, your time, the counties missed and “Practise the ones I missed”.
County Capital (the question)
Argeș Pitești
Bihor Oradea
Caraș-Severin Reșița
Covasna Sfântu Gheorghe
Dâmbovița Târgoviște
Dolj Craiova
Gorj Târgu Jiu
Hunedoara Deva
Harghita Miercurea Ciuc
Ilfov Buftea
Ialomița Slobozia
Mehedinți Drobeta-Turnu Severin
Maramureș Baia Mare
Olt Slatina
Prahova Ploiești
Sălaj Zalău
Teleorman Alexandria
Vrancea Focșani

The seats that cost points: Miercurea Ciuc for Harghita and Sfântu Gheorghe for Covasna, next to each other; Slobozia for Ialomița, Alexandria for Teleorman, Drobeta-Turnu Severin for Mehedinți. County names keep their Romanian letters (ș, ț, ă, â); only Bucharest is in English.

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

Can I click Bucharest?
Yes — the capital is asked as a place of its own, inside Ilfov County. Zoom in if it is small on your screen.
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 does the capitals quiz ask only 18 counties?
A county whose seat has its name (Arad, Brașov, Iași) or holds it (Alba Iulia, Cluj-Napoca, Târgu Mureș, Timișoara) would give itself away, so “Find it from its capital” leaves those 23 out, and Bucharest has no seat to ask. “Choose the capital” asks all 41 counties.
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.
