Quiz Instructions:
You
will be asked to identify 100 countries, regions, or bodies of water for your
map quiz. To study, use any maps
available in books or on the web. The
100 things you need to identify on the quiz are only those listed below. For the quiz, you will be given seven maps (see
the list of countries that will be on the maps below). In the country, regions, or bodies of water
you are responsible for identifying there will be a letter. Just match the letter on the map with the
name of the country, region, or body of water listed here. Use this page as
your answer sheet. To the left of the name of the country, region, or body of
water is a column for you to put in the letter. When you’re done, check you
work, then email the file to me. Include
your name in the title of the file. It
would make be very happy it the title of the file was this: Map 361 Your Name (So
if it was my map, it would be Map 361 Newmann).
Note:
If something is in italics that means it is a not a country. It’s a city, region,
or body of water.
Another
Note: Some nations may be on more than one map because they are important
features of more than one area of the world.
