About the shapes of East Asia
Stripped of colour and context, 6 East Asian countries are surprisingly hard to name. Each outline below is drawn to the same frame, so relative size gives nothing away.
The extremes tell you why: China at 9,706,961 km² and Taiwan at 36,193 km² are both scaled to fill the same box, so you are judging form alone.
Coastline does most of the work in East Asia. Countries with a distinctive peninsula or island chain are recognised quickly; compact inland shapes are the ones that stall people.
All 6 outlines from East Asia appear in the rotation, and the full country list is below with links to each profile.

Frequently asked questions
How many countries are in this quiz?
This quiz covers all 6 entries in East Asia. Questions are drawn from the full set, and the complete list appears in the table on this page.
Do I need an account?
No. There is no sign-up and no login. Your score stays in your own browser and is never sent anywhere.
How are the wrong answers chosen?
Deliberately, not at random. Each question prefers flags that are genuinely confusable with the right answer, then countries from the same sub-region, so guessing by elimination does not work.
Is it free?
Yes, completely free with no limit on how many times you play.
