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.
The advanced level needs to be updated, since Eugene is now larger than Salem, Roy is bigger than Syracuse, and Herriman is bigger than Eagle Mountain. It says it was last updated in 2015, 11 YEARS AGO!
The quiz was always live – I changed that now so it states that. And now of those population comparisons is true, according to most recent estimates on citypopulation.de.
When I ended an untimed int quiz, the results never displayed and I was left instead with the message “Calculating stats…”
I’ll take a look and see if I can figure out the issue.
