How the Asia map quiz works

You are shown a country name and click its location on the map of Asia. Misses are revealed straight away so each round teaches you something. Asia is the largest continent by both area and population, which makes it the most rewarding map to master.

Asia by region

Middle East / West Asia — Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Jordan, Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Oman, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Cyprus, Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan.

Central Asia — Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. All five end in "-stan" and sit in a block east of the Caspian Sea. Kazakhstan is by far the biggest; the rest fit underneath it.

South Asia — India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Sri Lanka and the Maldives.

East Asia — China, Mongolia, North Korea, South Korea and Japan.

Southeast Asia — Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Indonesia, Timor-Leste and the Philippines.

The countries people always miss

The Gulf states (Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, UAE) blur together on a small screen, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan get swapped, and Laos, Cambodia, Bhutan, Brunei and Timor-Leste are commonly forgotten entirely. Run one round on just those and your score climbs fast.

Landmarks that anchor the map

The Himalayas separate India from China, with Nepal and Bhutan strung along them.
The Arabian Peninsula holds Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states.
The Caspian Sea marks the western edge of Central Asia.
The Mekong runs down through Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam.
