How this quiz works

This quiz asks for the 12 UN member states of South America, grouped as the United Nations does. Land on the map that is not one of the 12 is drawn in a neutral tone. It is not asked, not labelled and not clickable.

With only 12 countries a round is quick, which makes it a good one for timing yourself. In Find it on the map you click or tap the country that the page names. Three wrong tries show the answer and count it as missed. In Name the highlighted one a country is lit and you choose its name from four, or type it.

No country here is small enough to need a marker, so each is tapped on its own shape. Chile is long and narrow, and the map shows it in full along the Pacific coast. Typed answers ignore capital letters and accents.

The end screen lists the countries you missed and lets you replay only those. Your best score for each mode is stored in your browser on this device and nowhere else.

Questions

Is French Guiana asked?

No. It is part of France, which is not in this quiz, so it is drawn as plain land on the map.

Which country is the largest in the quiz?

Brazil, which is the largest of the 12 by area.

How many tries do I get in Find it on the map?

Three. After the third wrong click the right country is shown and counted as missed.
