Neighboring Prefectures Quiz

This is a quiz where you guess the prefecture based on its adjacent prefectures.
Several prefectures are presented, and you have to figure out which ones border each other, so it’s quite challenging.
You might not even be able to answer for the prefecture you live in.
It’s a good chance to become aware of neighboring prefectures you don’t usually think about.
Since many prefecture names come up, you can learn about a lot of them.
The difficulty is high, but you can solve it through reasoning, so among geography quizzes, it might be a particularly enjoyable type.
Basic Knowledge Quiz on the World Map

This is a quiz that gathers basic questions from geography knowledge.
The level is for first-year junior high school students.
You might think you can easily get a perfect score, but there are some tough questions too.
Even if they were easy back then, you may find them difficult now.
I had especially forgotten the last two questions.
This geography quiz helps you unearth knowledge that’s been pushed to the corners of your memory.
If you’re a parent with a child about to enter junior high school, this could be a good chance to study again.
Foreign Place Names Quiz

This is a quiz where you read ateji (phonetic renderings) from around the world.
It features a wide range, from familiar country names and famous place names to entries that make you wonder how on earth they’re read that way.
Some may find it difficult, but you can often figure them out through guesses and imagery, so even those without prior knowledge can enjoy it.
There are some quite challenging questions, so simply being able to read them is something to brag about.
It’s a quiz that lets you experience the fun of ateji and the pleasure of gaining new knowledge.
It’s easygoing and great for killing time.
Give it a try!
Prefecture Shape Quiz

Those “guess the prefecture by its shape” questions often seen on elementary and junior high school tests.
If it’s the prefecture you live in, you can probably answer easily, but it suddenly gets hard when it’s another prefecture.
It’s simple if it’s been featured on TV and such, but it’s tough to recognize the shapes of less familiar prefectures.
So you could say it’s quite a challenging quiz.
It’s not particularly useful to know, but being able to answer makes for good bragging rights.
By the way, how you hold the prefecture is up to you.
