Asia map quiz

Find the countries of Asia on the map, from Türkiye to Japan, or name each one shown.

How it works

  1. Choose Find, Name or Learn.
  2. Find: tap the country named at the top. You have three tries; after the third it is shown to you. Skip (or the S key) saves a country for the end of the round, with the tries it has left.
  3. Name: the country lit up on the map is the question; type its name. Spelling slips in long names are forgiven.
  4. Drag to move the map, pinch or use + and − to zoom. Very small countries carry a dot you can tap.
  5. At the end you see your score and time, and can play only the ones you missed.

Why play here

Central Asia and the Gulf
The five Central Asian countries and the small Gulf states trip up most players. Learn mode is the quickest way to fix them.
Typing is free
The harder Name mode, where you type each country, costs nothing here.
Learn before you play
Learn mode lets you explore the map freely before a timed round.
Practise what you missed
One tap replays just the countries you got wrong, until you know them all.

Questions

Why are Türkiye, Georgia and Azerbaijan in Asia?

They lie across the border of Europe and Asia. Like most quizzes, this one puts Türkiye, Kazakhstan and the three Caucasus countries in Asia and Russia in Europe.

Is Taiwan included?

Yes. Taiwan is asked in the Asia round and the world round.
