How Does the Quiz on the Provinces of Japan Work?

The challenge is simple (but don't underestimate it!): You have 180 seconds to type the names of the 47 Japanese prefectures. With each correct answer, the prefecture will automatically appear on the list. Please type the name of the prefecture using Roman letters or kanji.

The interface is super practical:

  • A text field to enter the names.
  • A countdown showing your last seconds of glory (or despair).
  • A hidden list that will reveal itself as you get it right.
  • The system accepts small variations, so don't worry about accents or exact letters.
