If you're always learning new fun facts, reading books, or watching videos to find out more about the world, then this tricky continents and countries quiz is just the thing to test your knowledge. There are seven continents in the world: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Oceania, and Antarctica. Each continent has its own unique geography, climate, and culture.

Just one error. The country in question is located culturally within one continent, but geographically it belongs to another continent.
Dear Quizly, in this quiz, I found that youโd made a couple of errors. Please find the details of these below:
1. In your question: On which continent is the country of China located?
โ In your answer, you said, โThe correct answer is โAsiaโ. China, officially the Peopleโs Republic of China, is a country in East Asia. It is the worldโs most populous country, with a population of more than 1.4 billion.โ
I donโt know when you at Quizly first wrote this quiz, but this is overdue to be updated, because China is no longer the worldโs most populous country. Indiaโs population officially overtook that of China in April 2023. At the time of writing this (in late October 2025), Indiaโs population has been estimated to be just over 1.46 billion, whilst China’s is just over 1.41 billion. Indiaโs population is continuing to grow at a more rapid rate than Chinaโs is.
2. In your question: On which continent is the country of Suriname located?
โ You stated: โThe correct answer is โSouth Americaโ. Suriname is a small country on the north-eastern coast of South America. Itโs defined by vast swaths of tropical rainforest, Dutch colonial architecture and a melting-pot [of] culture.โ
In the interest of accuracy and spirit of helpfulness โ Iโm NOT being pedantic or nit-picking โ but thought that you would want to know that your word โswathsโ is not the correct spelling: it should be โswathesโ.
(Edited)
Thank you again for taking the time to send thoughtful feedback. We really do appreciate it.
You’re absolutely correct that India has since overtaken China as the world’s most populous country. That quiz explanation was written prior to the April 2023 population shift, and we’ll update it to reflect the current reality.
Regarding “swaths”, that spelling is actually the preferred American English form, which is what we use across Quizly as the majority of our audience is based in the US. “Swathes” is the British English spelling of the same word. Both are correct depending on region.
Thank you for helping us keep Quizly sharp and up-to-date. We do not think you are nitpicking. In fact, we’re grateful for users like you who care about accuracy as much as we do.
