How to play Europe Map Quiz

• Pick a mode in the toolbar. In Click the country you see a name and tap that country on the map of Europe. In Name it a country lights up and you choose its name from four options, or type it yourself.
• Play a quick round of 10 or 20 countries, or all 47. The order is shuffled every time.
• In click mode you get three tries per country. A first-try answer scores a full point, a second try half a point and a third try a quarter. After three misses the right country flashes and the quiz moves on.
• Answered countries stay coloured on the map: green for the first try, yellow for the second, orange for the third and red when you missed it.
• At the end you get a percentage score and your time. Use Retry missed to practise only the countries you got wrong, or switch to Learn / explore to tap around the map and read every name.

FAQ

How many countries are in the Europe map quiz?

Forty-seven: the 44 countries usually counted as European, plus Kosovo, Cyprus and Turkey, which most European map quizzes include. Russia and Turkey appear with the part of their territory that fits on the map.

Which countries in Europe are hardest to find?

Most players miss the micro-states (Liechtenstein, San Marino, Andorra, Monaco, Vatican City and Malta) and mix up Slovakia and Slovenia, or Latvia and Lithuania.

How is the score worked out?

Each country is worth one point on the first try, half a point on the second and a quarter on the third. Your score is the share of the maximum, so 100% means every country on the first try.

Can I zoom in on small countries?

Yes. Pinch on a phone or tablet, use the mouse wheel on a computer, or press the + button. Very small countries and island nations also get a round tap target so you can hit them without zooming.

Does the quiz save my progress?

Yes. Your current round is saved on this device, so you can close the page and carry on later. Your best score for each mode and round length is saved too.
