Find the Countries: Former Soviet Union No-Borders Quiz
Test your knowledge of the former Soviet Union by finding each country on a map with borders hidden.
The Baltics to Central Asia
This group contains the countries that became independent after the Soviet Union dissolved. They stretch from the Baltics through the Caucasus and into Central Asia.
Estonia feels like a Baltic question. Kazakhstan feels like Central Asia. Both are in the same historical set.
Four smaller maps work better here
The Baltics, the Caucasus and Central Asia each feel like their own little map. Learn them that way.
How the no-borders map quiz works
A country name appears on a map with the political borders hidden. Click where it belongs. The coastline stays, so you still have some geography to work with.
Borderless mode is a good follow-up once the normal click map has become comfortable.
Tip: Pick out a coastline, peninsula or big country you know and judge the target from there.
Central Asia is easy to rotate mentally
The five Central Asian countries are a common source of confusion, especially when the names are more familiar than the shapes.
