All First-Level Subdivisions of Europe on a Map

o_O
Wow!

This guy has to take that distinction. https://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/234916/all-country-first-level-subdivisions

Jesus HC, Iceland, Latvia... did you decide to divide your country up according to every pebble?

There are several ways to split up Iceland... this one apparently decided to use the municipalities, but there are regions and constituencies, which are fewer in number but do not directly correspond to government identities.

Not to mention Slovenia, which decided that individual cities and villages is the way to go O_O

I was surprised that Andorra had 7

Great!! Being a special case I suggest 2nd level subdivision for United Kingdom

The quiz crashes every time I try to pick Northen Ireland

please accept graubünden and grischun as answers for grisons

The first level divisions of the Czech Republic are Bohemia, Silesia and Moravia

we're talking administrative divisions

Sevastopol dosen't get highlighted.

Also, why are there two Donetsks?

There seem to be two Corks as well

Could you accept "Sörmland" för Södermanland?

Love this quiz! Long awaited challenge after the countries of the world has become too easy. Although maybe consider to accept Central Bohemia, Silesia etc without the last n?

wow... just wow. What's going on in the Balkans? Make larger administrative divisons! :D

How 65% are able to get Höfuðborgarsvæði is beyond me...

Höfuðborgarsvæði just means "capital city region" in Icelandic, so if you type Reykjavík you get credit for it.

Amazing quiz! I imagine this took a while to make. I'd love some more consistency in which languages are accepted though, and stuff like north vs northern etc. Maybe try to accept both the local names and english names where applicable? It seems like only the English names are accepted in some places and only the local one in others. And it's a bit frustrating when some places require you to type "north something" and others "northern something" (same with all the other points of compass). Might be good to also accept e.g. Belgrade and Beograd for City of Belgrade. Thanks again for the quiz!

Great quiz that deserves to be featured. Only minor quibble - It would be nice to have an arrow to indicate where the insets belong.

Best quiz ever

It litterally made the Quiz twice as hard xd

Nice! But shouldn't Crimea and Sevastopol be moved to Russia, to be in line with other Jetpunk quizzes?

aside from adding in Russia (that's where I got a good chunk of my answers)... why?

This already was a quiz I regularly came back to the last few months. Was a bit surprised when I went back to it today and saw a different map. A lot of new answers and some municipalities are very tiny, but you still managed to make a very clear map, well done.

One question though, will the UK (from countries to counties) and Belgium (from regions to provinces) also be changed in the future?

Belgium's first level subdivisions are the regions and definitely not provinces.

No random Istanbul neighbourhoods?

How did you get past the 500 answer limit?

26% are enough for 4 points... efficient enough for me.

I got 151. 4 points. and I don't expect to ever do better than that. good enough..

Wow! Great work! This must have taken days to do..!!!

I kept typing Esztergom for Komárom-Esztergom, Hungary. Could you allow it please?

Amazing quiz! "Minsk" appears as an answer twice.

There were some weird type-ins there. In particularly for Denmark, parts of Jutland just "syd" and "nor" were enough. And for Finland in Finnish as well, cut off at weird places.

Great! Maybe add 'Piemonte' as type-in for Piedmont? That's how you say it in Italian

My fingers hurt. Also, for Latvia and North Macedonia: WHY?!? Why do you need a division for every two feet? lol, Great quiz!

In Macedonia (and I guess Latvia) and e.g. also Slovenia these are simply municipalities, not much different than in other countries, but small countries don't really need an intermediate division between national and local level. Or to be precise, there usually is, but only for specific purposes (statistics, courts etc), not with the whole government apparatus.

This is awesome

How many correct answers do you need to get five points?

Slovenia needs some type ins, some two-for-ones as a result won't hurt:
- all hyphenated ones should accept either first or second part
- "detailed locations" can be dropped: Cerklje, Črna, Kostanjevica, Lovrenc, Miklavž, Ribnica, Radlje, Ravne, Rečica, Selnica, Središče, Sveti Jurij, Sveti Andraž, Sveta Trojica, Šmarje, Šmartno, Zagorje
- all sveti/sveta can be abbreviated as "sv"
- (Gornja) Radgona, Rogaška (Slatina), Sobota, Gorica, Konjice, Lašče

I wonder how many jetpunkers will get 5/5 without cheating on this one

I can't think of with cheating though...

Wow, what a brilliant effort! You could consider re-naming it to "Paint this map of Europe red". At least in my case!

That wouldn't be much of a challenge then.

Impressive. I'm not even going to try it.

ABORT - just looking at Slovenia put me off. I'll come back another day.

I thought knowing 300 would be enough. Apparently not, 4 points :(

Epic

I wasn't given Faroe Islands because it accepted after Faro - which, of course, is in Portugal. And because it is difficult to see where a new green blob (or rather pixel) appears, I thought I must have got Faroe and went on with other areas. Bummer!. >(

All the Slovenian places have 1% people guessing them

Two words: Outstanding Quiz!

Shouldn't Bornholm be on this map?

Also, did you take off the Helsinki type-in for Uusimaa?

Type-ins are not working for words with 'ð' -- e.g. blaskogabyggo is not working for bláskógabyggð and borgarbyggo is not working for borgarbyggð. Thanks!

This is not really interesting. I don't like quizzes with less than ten answers, but this is the opposite excess. Statistical regions would be a more relevant choice for unitary countries like Slovenia, North Macedonia and Latvia.

Excuse me? Not interesting? This is one of the largest map quizzes on the site, and the largest featured quiz. IAB spent over a month making this. It's one of the hardest quizzes. And you say it's not interesting?? What the hell is wrong with you?

Harder is not better. Sorry but I consider the municipalities of Slovenia as totally useless knowledge. Even for Slovenians it's useless to know them all. Do you think I know all the communes of Belgium? I don't. There are much more interesting things to study. What's wrong with me may be that I have varied interests and tastes and that I don't find funny to memorize tens of thousands of insignificant locations. So yes, the design may be nice and praiseworthy, but I think it's not an interesting list to know.

Is there supposed to be two Pomoravljes in Serbia? The one next to Belgrade Wikipedia claims is Podunavlje.

Epic quiz indeed. Time too short :D

Just out of curiosity, what are the uninhabited divisions? My only guess is Jan Mayen.

I have completed this quiz four times and it never keeps my score or my record of completing it. Is there a reason for this?

If you took the quiz Untimed then it wouldn't register as you completing it, I think. But even if you took it untimed it should still show your best score in the brown box that comes up when you finish or give up.

Where is Tuzi (Montenegro) on this map? It's an answer in Montenegro, but no green shows up.

My new favourite quiz! Only able to find around 200 but I will practice! Thanks for the hard work!

Aren't the first-level administrative divisions of England the counties? The country of England is not administered per-se by an English parliament because there isn't one. Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales all have their own parliaments, true, but England is ruled firstly by the UK parliament (as is Scotland, Wales and NI) but then at the next level down, by the counties.

don't encourage him to *more* answers! :D if anything you ought to undo the last update that doubled them.

Great! Any 'by borders' version coming up soon?

Why not just go all the way and do a quiz on all street names in Europe.

Don't know if this has been mentioned anywhere before, but NRW is a common (and relieving) abbreviation for North Rhine-Westphalia.

WTF !!!

I'm usually up for a good challenge, but what the hell? I'm not learning 127 subdivisions of Iceland (ok, maybe a slight exaggeration)

Since this quiz only includes inhabited subdivisions, I went looking for the least populated one, and so far my best offer is Árneshreppur, population 43, which 1% of quizzers (incredibly) have heard of and can spell correctly.

Props to those who got 100%

Is this even possible even by cheating

I officially broke 900! Only Iceland and Slovenia left. I don't know which one to do next, Iceland's are hard to spell, and Slovenia from the sheer number of them. Maybe I'll settle with what I have.

If you're including the European half of Russia, shouldn't you add the divisions of East Thrace as well?

You probably are working on this, but Norway restructure their county system from 19 to 11.
