Type the Countries: Europe Map Quiz

Lots of countries in very little space

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.

Portugal is hard to confuse. Luxembourg and Slovenia are a different story, and the microstates can disappear at normal zoom.

How the typing map quiz works

One country is highlighted. Type its name and move on to the next one. You get the location as a clue, but the name has to come from memory.

Typing is useful once the shapes feel familiar but some of the names still lag behind.

Tip: If you recognize the shape but the name is slow, say the name out loud or in your head before typing.

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.
