Thanks to user IAB for creating the map and to user Stewart for lowering the file size!
Only including inhabited subdivisions

To reduce lag, start around Slovenia and North Macedonia

As per popular request, the timer has been increased from 1:15 to 2:00. As for the lag, I sadly cannot reduce it, but I have added a caveat with a tip on how to remove most of the lag more quickly: tackle Slovenia and North Macedonia first, these two cause the most lag.
+13
Level 65
Oct 31, 2020
Stewart just redesigned the backend for type-ins, removing most of the lag from this quiz! (The lag that remains is due to SVG updates)
+4
Level 55
Apr 11, 2020
Just a question: How did you get my updated subdivisions map when it's not submitted yet?
+3
Level 55
Apr 11, 2020
Also correction: Stewart did not make any of the map, he just helped me lower the file size of the map, since the maximum for a map on JetPunk is 600kb.
+3
Level 65
Apr 11, 2020
Thank you, I'll change that!
+3
Level 65
Apr 11, 2020
I got the map off this quiz. It's featured, so you can make a copy of it to edit yourself, and that copy includes the map. But I see what you mean, the map is different than the one that is online at the moment. That'd mean that it's copied the unsubmitted version somehow, which would be an interesting bug in the website
+2
Level 55
Apr 11, 2020
Interesting...
+2
Level 68
Apr 11, 2020
The "copy quiz" feature copies the quiz from create/edit, not the live page. So yes it would copy across any unsubmitted changes. The way JetPunk stores live quizzes and unsubmitted quizzes is different and would make it more difficult to copy across if we copied a live quiz into an unsubmitted one.
+1
Level 65
Apr 12, 2020
Thank you for the explanation Stewart! IAB, is it okay for you if I use the unsubmitted version, or do you want me to look for another map?
+2
Level 55
May 19, 2020
The quiz doesn't need to be featured to download the map!
+1
Level 65
May 20, 2020
@DodomaAstatine I wasn't aware of that. How do you download maps of unfeatured quizzes? Cuz the only way I know is copying a featured quiz together with the map
+2
Level 55
May 20, 2020
OK. So first you do Control U to the page that has the SVG you want to download (test this out by going to IAB's First Level Subdivisions of Europe quiz). Scroll all the way down to line 289 (on other quizzes this line varies).It should start with something that says <svg id="svg2". Highlight that code and scroll down. (You should notice that as you highlight, there aren't any numbers on the left.) Once you reach the place where all the lines of code that stretch the entire line end (this doesn't mean highlighting until the end; that won't work), copy the code and then paste it to Notepad (on Windows) or TextEdit (on MacOS) and then save the file. Instead of saving it as a .txt file, save it as a .svg file (by changing .txt to .svg) and then click the dropdown menu "all files." On InkScape, click "Open" and open the file with the text in it, and it will automatically convert to an SVG on InkScape.

Is ljubljana the 400 province place?

May 1, 2020
No, Ljubljana 'only' triggers 313 answers, which puts it in shared 99th place on the amount of subdivisions triggered.

Level 83
Jun 3, 2020
A rather theoretical issue: If there were enough time one could easily look at the already guessed names next to the map and get the missing ones, too. For example I took it untimed and was missing one in Russia, but with trying all the displayed solutions, even though I did not know they were subdivisions before, I was eventually able to guess one next to it and finish the quiz.

So maybe for this quiz it would be better to only have the map.

+1
Level 65
Jun 3, 2020
On a laptop the names of the already guessed subdivisions will also show once you hover over their respective areas, so removing the answer boxes doesn't help with that. If you take it untimed you can always finish this quiz indeed, whether it is by hovering over the map or looking at the answer boxes. But if you take it with the 75 seconds timer most won't have time for that

Why does Slovenia have to be so stupid?
+3
Level 55
Oct 21, 2020
It isn't. The map creator, IAB, decided to include the 212 municipalities of Slovenia instead of the 12 regions of Slovenia...don't know why.
+5
Level 65
Oct 22, 2020
The regions of Slovenia are only for legal and statistical purposes. They have no administrative power. This is why I chose to go with the municipalities, which are the first subdivisions that do have administrative powers, and I think IAB did as well. (In my first level subdivision quiz I also use the municipalities rather than the statistical regions)

It's small enough that regions aren't really necessary, similar with Macedonia, Latvia etc. All such countries of course have some sort of larger regions for various purposes (statistics, police and court districts, public administration, EU subsidies etc etc), but this quiz goes strictly for self-governing areas.

Great game, but it's very slow running and prone to crashing – which makes the 1:15 time limit challenging – no matter how fast I type in places, the thing responds so slowly that the time expires before some of them have even registered.

Finnmark, Norway has merged with Troms to form a larger county, which is included in the quiz and map, but it is also required as a separate answer without corresponding to anything on the map. That also means you can fill out the map entirely and still miss it, which is what happened to me. Can you please fix this?

Quizmaster did not approve the changes as it is likely more changes will have to happen in the future. Finnmark will therefore unfortunately stay as an answer for the time being.

Huh, when I did the version this quiz is currently using I probably forgot to delete Finnmark by accident but then finally removed it when I truly updated the quiz in July. (As the actual first-level subdivisions of Europe quiz doesn't have it.)

It's indeed those 2. I have the old Monaco subdivisions, of which there are 10, whereas IAB uses the new ones, of which there are 9. And Finnmark, Norway is extra here.

Maybe is this quiz a little too easy ? Excluding Iceland, norwegian and portuguese islands (no spoil sorry :P ), getting only one continental / UK / Ireland / Malta answer can get you all of them, if you have enough time to type the outmost green subdivision each time... This is just a suggestion, but it could probably be better to reduce the time a little.

The regex I'm using for that is r:^(AR[CK]H?A[A-Z]+K), meaning Archangelk is accepted. Removing that final K would mean anything starting with "Archa" + any letter would be accepted, which is too loose in my opinion.

The Netherlands, Curacao, Saint Maarten and Aruba are the first level subdivisions of the Kingdom of the Netherlands since the breakup of the Netherlands Antilles. The provinces and Saba, Saint Eustatius and Bonaire are the second level subdivisions.

I'm aware that in the Netherlands we see the provinces as the first level, I'm Dutch too :). It's incorrect to include them though, since we're talking about the Kingdom of the Netherlands here (I.e. the entire country including the Caribbean), not just European Netherlands
