Type the Capitals: Europe Quiz
Practice the capitals of Europe while keeping each country tied to its place on the map.
Europe puts a lot of countries into a small map. The big peninsulas are easy to orient around, but the middle of the continent gets crowded fast.
Madrid and Rome usually come quickly; Ljubljana, Bratislava, Podgorica, and Chisinau are better tests of full recall.
Where the map gets crowded
Western and central Europe pack several small countries into very little screen space. Zooming helps. Knowing which neighbors belong around them helps more.
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.
When a capital keeps slipping
Picture the country first and say the capital before typing. The answer dot gives you a quick location check afterward.
Central Europe is the bottleneck
Central Europe and the Balkans are where a rough guess stops working. Several small countries sit only a short distance apart.
