Map Quiz Instructions:

 

You will be asked to identify 50 countries/geographic areas for your map quiz.  To study, use any maps available in books or on the web.  The 50 countries you need to identify on the quiz are only those listed below.  For the quiz, you will be given several maps.  In the countries/geographic areas you are responsible for identifying there will be a letter.  You will also be given an answer sheet with a list of all the countries areas (so you don't have to worry about spelling).  You will simply match the letters on the maps with the name of the nation on your answer sheet.
