There do not exist state quizzes for the Indian states and union territories. So, I have decided to make separate quizzes for each of the Indian states and union territories in alphabetical order starting from Andhra Pradesh. Enjoy! :)

Cool! The Indian states all definitely deserve quizzes. There's a lot of stuff I don't know about Andhra Pradesh but happy to learn!

As a fun fact, I had a friend in high school who was initially from Andhra Pradesh, and her last name was Kuchipudi :)
