Hey there, fellow history enthusiasts! Are you ready to put your knowledge to the test? If you think you know your countries like the back of your hand, then this quiz is just for you. We've dug deep into the annals of history to bring you some seriously tricky questions that will have you scratching your head and reaching for the old history books.

Sure, you might be familiar with the world map, but do you know the modern-day countries by their former names? We're talking about the ones that were known by something completely different back in the day. It's time to put your skills to the test and see if you have what it takes to earn the title of true history buff.

So, if you're ready to accept the challenge, get ready to travel back in time and explore the world in a whole new way. From Cambodia to Taiwan to Zimbabwe, we've got some seriously tough questions that will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about the world. Let's get started!

    Oh no! You weren’t able to match many of the countries to their former names. Don’t worry though, history can be difficult and takes time to learn. Keep studying and practicing and you’ll improve your history knowledge in no time.
