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.
surprised to see iasi on here
In their native language both Cologne and Vienna would count since their names in German are Köln and Wien, both one syllable.
Yes but I’m using English versions of names for this quiz.
What about Kielce and Trier?
Gdańsk is listed as two syllables on the Wiki page, with the audio sample in the Name section instead of in the opening paragraph.
Will add those two. I have Gdansk as one syllable in my other quizzes and native Polish speakers (I speak some myself) do pronounce it as one syllable.
I thought Lyon had two syllables.
In the French pronunciation the two parts are diphthongs, I am counting those as one syllable.
Player from Lyon here : definitely one syllable in French pronouncing.
