World Map Quiz – Find Countries on the Map
This world map quiz tests how well you know where countries are. In Find mode the quiz names a country, such as Peru, Kenya or Vietnam, and you click it on the map. In Name mode a country lights up and you pick its name from four choices. Play the whole world or zoom in on one continent (Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe or Oceania) so small countries are easier to click. Rounds can be 10 or 20 questions or every country in the region, about 168 countries on the full map. You get three tries per country in Find mode, and the right answer flashes if you miss. Your score, time and best result are saved, and missed countries are listed at the end for review.
