Play nowTake an Oceania countries quiz on an interactive 3D globe. Read each country name, then click its location among the Pacific islands.

Tips to play better
Practise island groups together
Papua New Guinea, Fiji, Solomon Islands and Vanuatu are a useful group to practise. Then work on Samoa, Tonga, Tuvalu, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Palau and Nauru. The grid helps you check every available entry.
Use Australia and New Zealand as references
Australia and New Zealand provide familiar reference points when you rotate the globe. Other entries include Papua New Guinea and the Pacific island countries. The prompts are not ordered from large countries to small ones.
Use markers for small island countries
Small playable countries have markers on the globe. Rotate toward the right island group, zoom until you can distinguish the markers, and select the one matching the country name. You do not need to infer elevation or island type from the map.
Federated States of Micronesia
FSM is a single sovereign country made up of four state groups: Yap, Chuuk, Pohnpei, Kosrae. People often mistake it for a region rather than one nation. Its capital is Palikir, on Pohnpei.
Frequently asked questions
Are Hawaii and French Polynesia in the quiz?
No. Hawaii, French Polynesia and New Caledonia are not separate playable targets in the current Oceania dataset. The grid lists the full regional selection of 14 countries and territories.
Is Papua New Guinea included?
Yes. Papua New Guinea is one of the 14 entries in the full Oceania pool. It is a separate target from the nearby Solomon Islands and the other Pacific countries.
Is Tuvalu a playable target?
Yes. Tuvalu is included in the full Oceania selection. Like other small playable countries, it can be selected using a marker on the globe rather than searching for a large polygon.
Does the globe move after I select a country?
A correct click does not automatically recenter the globe. Rotate and zoom it yourself to find the next named country. The 3D view lets you move across the Pacific without relying on a fixed screen position.
