Type the Capitals: Balkans Quiz
Practice the capitals of the Balkans while keeping each country tied to its place on the map.
Small borders, similar neighbors
The Balkans pack a lot of countries into southeastern Europe. The shapes are small enough that knowing the rough region is rarely enough.
Croatia is recognizable. Keeping Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and North Macedonia in the right order is the harder part.
Neighbor order matters here
The Balkans make neighbor order matter. Recognizing the country names by themselves will not place them on this map.
How the capitals quiz works
A country is highlighted and named. Type its capital. Smurdy marks the capital on the map for a moment before the next question.
Capital mode makes the most sense once the countries or states themselves are familiar.
Tip: Try to get the city from memory before you look for the answer dot.
A few kilometers on screen can matter
The middle of the peninsula is full of short borders and similarly sized neighbors. Regional definitions also vary, so Smurdy uses one fixed country list.
