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.

I’m trying to figure out the correct name for the Barren Island and Plumb Beach neighborhoods in Brooklyn (can’t seem to get those to fill in, any other names for those spots?)
Plumb Beach was spelled Plum Beach – fixing. not sure what the other is called in this quiz, sorry – can’t remember my source either.
Hi again, figured out it’s in there as Floyd Bennett Field (which is the name of the field in the center of the area). I think Barren Island would be a more appropriate listing for that neighborhood, if possible to change.
Actually, on further reading, it looks like Floyd Bennett is the name of the historic district, so that name is appropriate. Can probably be left as is.
by the way, what source did you use for this?
unfortunately I don’t remember the source for this one
My score makes it obvious I’m a west coast guy 😀
Darin, I hope you’re prepared for the ridiculous indignation and squabbling that this quiz is going to cause…
