Type the Countries: Southeast Asia Map Quiz

Mainland chains and island arcs

Southeast Asia has two very different-looking halves: the mainland around Thailand and Vietnam, and the island countries farther south and east.

Thailand gives you a mainland shape to learn. Indonesia turns the same quiz into an archipelago problem a few questions later.

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.

Get the mainland comfortable first

Treat mainland and maritime Southeast Asia as two small maps until both feel easy.
