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.

Updated with the new 1K+ Europe cities data set so there will be more cities on some of the options now.
maybe its me but the percentage counter seems off (15 top cities +germany+uk only gives 5%) and the ‘finished country counter’ stays on 0.
Yeah, “finished country counter” isn’t working for me either, still.
I see Arnavutköy showing up in the European quizzes now. Isn’t that part of Istanbul?
Per citypopulation.de it is considered a separate city.
Huh, well that’s new. Feels like an error based on information elsewhere online, but can’t argue with the source 🙂
Though I do wonder what they mean by “The 2017 and 2022 population figures of cities in municipal provinces are calculated summarizing the population of selected neighborhoods.” – Makes it sound like citypop.de calculated the results on their own.
And sorry for the delayed response. I finally figured out how to find my past comments on this site. Only took me ten years 😛
One minor issue: the Top Cities counter has a bug as I suddenly jumped to 344 on a 130 cities quiz. And a minor detail… didn’t Kosovo use to have a border?
if you can recreate the Top Cities bug let me know what city you typed in to jump to 344 – i’m not seeing anything wrong. Kosovo doesn’t have an outline for itself on the quizzes where you can zoom in all the way.
Some of the smaller countries don’t show up in the list at the bottom, and they didn’t seem to update in the city counter right away. Also, some of the Belgian cities, such as Antwerp, don’t look like they have the correct coordinates. I really like this quiz and the US version; don’t know how I missed them before now. Would be cool to have a World version plus ones for other continents too.
ah I know the issue…ill fix those things later on tonight.
ok added Malta and Andorra’s entries in the bottom rows. Belgium is fixed.
Weird. For the top 3 cities, my counter stopped at 113, but my score was nonetheless correctly saved with 116.
i’m going to remove the stats feature til i can get it working properly for this and the us version.
Why are the shapes of Lebanon, West Bank and Gaza included when they aren’t in Europe? And something is definitely up with the 50 hardest and 50 missed and the percentages. For example, I fail to believe 93.33% of people knew Vlore yet only 86.66% got Amsterdam.
For some reason, the outlines of the countries you mentioned are always included in the Europe quizzes. The statistics issue is weird though. Never heard of Vlore 🙂
On the other hand, Kosovo’s borders aren’t there. I think you gotta ask Mapquest about it. The 50 hardest/missed lists are definitely broken.
There’s something up with the “50 missed” and “50 hardest” on this one – “50 missed” only shows me ones which I DID get, and “50 hardest” mixes up some of the ones I did get with some which I didn’t.
Same issue here.
