eduMap provides a fun way to learn the location of countries, states and capitals. Includes multiple maps, high scores and different playing modes.

Always wanted to learn the location of each African country? How about capitals of U.S. states? Maybe you never had a chance to learn all the names of all independent European nations since 1991?

The eduMap widget provides a fun way to learn the location of countries, states and capitals. Select either a full continent or a subsection of countries, then be quizzed on their locations. In the default mode, just hover over a country or state and discover its name, capital, area and population.

Different quiz modes are available to help you lean in a variety of ways. High scores are recorded on your system, based on percentage correct and completion time. 100% SVG based, so you can resize the widget to whatever size is preferred without any quality loss.

Currently Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, and the USA are available. More maps may be added in the future.

Now also available in Russian, with more language support to come!

Kazakhstan's area is not 150,000 square kilometers.
Great learning tool by the way.

Congratulations, that's a great tool for knowledge and memory training!

I have just found some bugs:
- the flag of taiwan does not display
- on the Asia map, while playing "location to flag", widget reports "wrong" on Russia, Turkey, Cyprus, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia and Kazakhstan even on good answer. And that's frustrating because this is already diffuclt enougth to remember :-)

Thank you.

I forgot to say the more important thing: when you click on Serbia it doesn't show a flag!

Could you please correct this?

Thanks in advance.

発言者 net_freek, # 2008/06/28 8:35:34

I noticed only one mistake: when you click on El Salvador it shows the Serbian flag! I was really surprised because I am from Serbia

Nevertheless it is an excellent widget.

Keep up the good work.

Bye

Great work! thanx for sharing...

Nice widget.
A few things I noticed:
- The nation of Bahrain is missing.
- New Zealand's flag is showing at an incorrect ratio (should be 2x1)
- Sao Tome and Príncipe is incorrect! You have swapped it with the Equatorial Guinnean island of
"Bioko".

Hah, this was nice, learning those fifty states for once and for all, just in time before the next US election

Want to have a Dutch translation?

発言者 Rijk, # 2008/06/12 19:49:40

This widget is very great!!!
I've never been able to remember where are which country (excepte for a few...).
My progress are very important. Now when I read the name of a country in a newspaper, I'm able to see whre it is.
Just a suggestion : the association flags <-> countries, would be an interesting direction of development....
Thank you very much for this good piece of software!

@jimboh

Great to hear it.

@Άγγελος

I understand there's quite the controversy on the subject, and will rename the country to "Republic of Macedonia" in my next update, until a more official name has been agreed on. Thanks for bringing that to my attention!

発言者 Fyrd, # 2008/05/26 20:25:17

I found one big big big big big mistake. Instead of FYROM it says Macedonia. Macedonia is in Greece.

Macedonia is GREEK

This widget works great and I'm definitely learning a lot from it. Hopefully one day I'll know the capitol of every country!

@61au79

Thanks, I've fixed the spelling now.

Once you click on the drop down arrow, you should just be able to click on the language that appears in the list to proceed. I agree that there should probably be a button to be clicked after that to conform with common interfaces.

発言者 Fyrd, # 2008/05/18 13:45:51

I just tried this and it gets stuck on the language-select screen in Opera/9.24 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X; U; en) with Java installed. I'm clicking around the black space hoping to find any section that might function as OK or Go. I have already tried 'enter' and 'return' and double-clicking the ellipse in the thought bubble and the language selection drop-down list.

発言者 61au79, # 2008/05/16 0:11:13

I haven't tried this yet, but do you realise that each nation and state have a capital, not a "capitol"? That spelling is exclusively used for one building in Washington DC.

発言者 61au79, # 2008/05/16 0:04:28

Whoops, I forgot to update the version number in last update. So it'll say 2.0 despite actually being 2.1.

@skulldyvan - Thanks!
1. Yeah, I noticed it do that on some versions of Opera I tried, it works fine on others. I'll see if it's something I can fix somehow.
2. Good point, thanks for the suggestion.
3. Hmm, I think it's really taking the last flag it loaded from any previous map, and displays it. Thanks for noticing that. (Note that US state flags are intentionally absent)

発言者 Fyrd, # 2008/05/14 12:16:56

also, when hovering over the USA states it shows the argentinian flag in the details corner

発言者 skulldyvan, # 2008/05/12 20:11:05

Wow! Nice improvements and almost doesn't lag at all!
Still, just small notes:
- the circle sometimes (lmost allways) doesn't get smaller to show the country on the map but remains just like that on the map until it has to show another country.
- it would look better if (in location->flag mode) the flags would be a little aligned so it doesn't get over the interface(start/stop and zoom window).It doesn't impair functionality, it would just be more visually pleasing.

発言者 skulldyvan, # 2008/05/12 20:02:02

Note: I've just discovered that the Africa and Oceania maps don't appear in Opera 9.2 for Windows. This has been fixed for the next version (should be available May 13th).

発言者 Fyrd, # 2008/05/12 13:55:40

Changelog for 2.0:
- Added zoom box
- Added Oceania map
- Fixed "show completed countries" checkbox
- Balanced Africa subregion counts
- Made text no longer selectable
- Made incorrect countries blink to indicate location
- Added missing hover effects to buttons
- Added larger click areas for island nations
- Improved Russian translations (thanks to Алексей and others that submitted fixes!)

Opera 9.5 only:
- Added flag display in learning mode
- Added flag->location mode
- Added location->flag mode
(Flags available only for countries, not US states)

発言者 Fyrd, # 2008/05/12 11:16:41

Hey everyone, I've been gone for a while, but have now returned. I expect to post version 2.0 of eduMap with significant additional features by the end of the week. Most of the work's already been done, just have some bugs to fix.

Oh, and I've received three fixed Russian translations already, no need for any more thank you!

@skulldyvan - That's a great idea and probably something I'll add in a future version (not 2.0 yet though)

@kitt - Initially I didn't add Austalia because just Australia and New Zealand didn't seem like enough countries to warrant another map to learn from. However, you'll be happy to hear that I've added an Oceania map in 2.0.

@Bloggs-Freddo - What operating system do you use and which version of Opera?
