Ukraine Oblasts Quiz: Name All 24 Oblasts

Ukraine has 24 oblasts, the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, and two cities with special status: Kyiv and Sevastopol. This quiz asks for all 27 areas within Ukraine's internationally recognized borders.

You type the name of each area, and the map colors that area in place.

How to play

• Type names in any order. A correct name colors the area on the map at once.
• You can start to type right away. You do not need to click the answer box first.
• The word "oblast" is not required. "Lviv" counts for Lviv Oblast.
• "Kyiv" scores the city. Type "Kyiv Oblast" in full for the oblast around it.
• Older transliterations count. "Odessa" scores Odesa Oblast, and "Kiev" scores Kyiv.
• A timer tracks your run. The quiz saves your best score and best time.
• If you are stuck, use the give up button. The map then shows the areas you missed.

What counts in this quiz

• The 24 oblasts, Crimea, Kyiv and Sevastopol.

What's not included — and why

• Historic regions are not answers. Donbas and Galicia group oblasts, but they do not score.

Good to know

• Almost every oblast carries the name of its administrative center.
• Odesa Oblast is the largest by area.
• Zakarpattia borders four countries: Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania.
• Kyiv Oblast surrounds the capital, but the city of Kyiv governs itself.
