How to Play the Pakistan Map Quiz
- Before you start, tap any part of the map to see its name, or press "Show names" to label them all.
- Pick a round: Provinces names each province and territory, Capitals names its capital city.
- Click the right place on the map. Islamabad is tiny, so it has a ring around it that counts as a click.
- After each answer the right place lights up, so a mistake still teaches you where it is.
The four provinces of Pakistan
Punjab is home to more than half of Pakistan’s people, about 128 million at the 2023 census, with Lahore as its capital. Sindh, in the south, holds Karachi, the largest city and the country’s main port. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa lies in the north west along Afghanistan, with Peshawar as its capital. Balochistan is by far the largest province, about 44 percent of Pakistan’s land, but has the fewest people; its capital is Quetta.
In 2018 the Federally Administered Tribal Areas joined Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, so older maps show one more unit along the Afghan border. This map shows Pakistan after that merger.
Islamabad, Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Kashmir
Islamabad Capital Territory is a federal territory, not part of any province, built in the 1960s as the new capital next to Rawalpindi. Gilgit-Baltistan in the far north, with K2 and most of Pakistan’s highest peaks, and Azad Jammu and Kashmir are administered by Pakistan with their own assemblies but are not provinces. The wider Kashmir region is disputed between Pakistan, India and China; the map shows the areas Pakistan administers, and the parts administered by India and China are hatched.
