What it does
The Asia Map Quiz is a free browser game that asks you to find Asia's 48 countries on a blank map, using the United Nations grouping, which includes Palestine and Cyprus and places Russia in Europe. Each turn names a country and you click it; a wrong click highlights the right place. Practice mode repeats your misses and timed mode records your best time.
How to use it
- Find the named country
Click the country named above the map. Singapore, Bahrain, the Maldives and other small states have round markers.
- Zoom in for small places
Use the + and − buttons, pinch on a phone, or hold Ctrl and scroll. Drag to move around once you have zoomed in.
- Drill your mistakes
At the end you see your score, your time and everything you missed. Press Practice the ones you missed to replay only those.
Limits and notes
- Russia is drawn as background because the UN groups it with Eastern Europe. Taiwan is drawn hatched and is not asked.
- Borders come from Natural Earth (1:50m) and are simplified so the map loads fast.
- Scores and best times are kept only in this browser. Clearing site data resets them.

Frequently asked questions
How many countries are in Asia?
This quiz asks 48: the countries the United Nations groups under Asia, including Palestine. Lists that count Taiwan give 49, and some also include Russia.
Which Asian countries are hardest to find?
Small states in Western Asia — Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Lebanon, Israel and Palestine — plus Singapore, Brunei, Timor-Leste and the Maldives. The Central Asian "-stans" are also easy to mix up.
Is Russia part of the quiz?
No. Most of Russia lies in Asia, but the UN groups the country with Eastern Europe, so it is asked in the Europe Map Quiz and shown here as background.
