You begin with two Europe countries/US states shown in the grid. Upon starting, your job is to sort the countries/states in order from largest to smallest by max elevation (so countries/states with the highest max elevation first). The order is represented by the '1st' thru '16th' in each box. You can click on a country/state to move it to a higher position in the list - simply click once and it will turn red, then clicked another higher-ranked country/state to position the first country/state before it. Click submit to check your answers...if they are in order you will get a new country/state added to the end which needs to be positioned correctly, and so on until you either get one wrong or complete all 15 levels.
PLEASE NOTE: Only the portions of each country geographically in Europe are counted to determine the highest points. So no Asian portion of Turkey/Russia, African portion of Spain/Portugal, Greenland, etc.
hugequiz Premium members will see country/state max elevations when the quiz is over.
icelanic cities doesnt work for some reason
Iceland? Working fine for me.
Can you make the answers in the end also show the country for each city? It will be so much nicer! 🙂
Done 🙂
you are my hero, thanks!!!
turkey is definitely wrong. there are many cities with millions of population but you added only istanbul
It’s just the ones in Europe – I’ll add a note in description.
How often does the quiz get updated? I realised today that the list for moldova changed a bit.
Once in a while, it’s not live.
at Romania and at France there are missing citys
I see all 10, and they are based on citypopulation.de
What’s the source for Montenegro? Shouldn’t Herceg Novi be on the list? It is in the top ten of the recent censuses that I’m seeing.
http://citypopulation.de/en/montenegro/cities/
Herceg Novi is on your link at #5 for the 2023 census, but it doesn’t show up on the quiz.
What is your source for Albania? I know it is tough to get firm numbers for that, but the last two cities don’t show up on several reputable population lists. On a related note, I looked up Paskuqan, and it appears it became part of Kamez in 2015.
Yeah I found a separate source other than citypopulation.de for Albania. It looks like Paskuqan is still its own city though, even though it became part of the municipal unit of Kamez.
I’m not quite sure what “patos, albania” is doing in the list. several sources list it with 15.000 people or less, which would not make it in the top10 of albania.
I see a couple with 32k for it…Albania was a little tough to get firm numbers for.
Would be nice to see the country for each city in the “missed” sections after surrendering 🙂
I think quizzes like these need a better time bonus system. You can get five minutes of extra time if you just enter two cities (Monaco and Serravalle), but you can also get zero minutes for entering 80 cities if you are unable to name a lot of cities in a single country.
Italy is deceptively easy. Those two cities you list plus Italy should be enough for just about everyone to get to 100.
I’m Spanish and I got Italy before Spain lol
Can there be an easier option that Just has a bigger time limit? because 5 minutes is not enough
there are time bonuses throughout for all users, and premium members get double time and double time bonuses
anyways 10 minutes to name 421 city is not enough
Start by typing the largest cities of Monaco, San Marino and Andorra and you’ll have more time 🙂
