What is the capital of Iraq?
Daily Map Quiz is a fast geography game built around place — where countries live on the map, what region they belong to, and which capital marks them on an atlas. Every day at 00:00 UTC we generate ten fresh location questions and serve the same puzzle to everyone, so you can compare your time and accuracy with a friend. No login, no install, no signup. Just open the page and play. The puzzle rotates between three question styles. Some prompts ask which of four countries belongs to a given region — handy for sharpening your sense of where Africa ends and the Middle East begins, or which countries count as Oceania. Others give you a country and four candidate capitals; a third style flips it and asks which continent a country belongs to. The mix keeps your eye moving across the map instead of memorising trivia in one tight pocket. Past puzzles live in a 90-day archive at /daily, and every /daily/YYYY-MM-DD URL is permanent and shareable — the same date always serves the same ten questions in the same order. The unlimited mode at /unlimited shuffles a random ten-question round on every play, perfect for cramming before a trip. Daily Map Quiz is part of GeoSites, a small portfolio of geography puzzles.
