Gaius Paulinus Maximus Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Have a look at this site, it's a map of the empire and you get 26 questions asking you to pinpoint certain places throught-out the Roman world, there's two levels - easy or hard. http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Bay/4998/rome.html It's a bit of fun but educational at the same time.

The Augusta Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Have a look at this site, it's a map of the empire and you get 26 questions asking you to pinpoint certain places throught-out the Roman world, there's two levels - easy or hard. http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Bay/4998/rome.html It's a bit of fun but educational at the same time. Well I was doing OK until it went funny! I know damn well where Sardinia is - but when I clicked on it, it told me I was wrong at first and then kept freezing. In any case, I went on the Easy mode to start with and got 43 out of 45. I'm fine with BC geography. It's modern stuff I'm useless with. I can tell you where Parthia was, but equate it to a modern part of the world and I'm hopeless! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pertinax Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 I think you have to be careful not to click on a city if you are after the province it is within. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julius Ratus Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 149/180 first attempt on hard. If it was modern Geography I would likely have aced it. My eastern geography is far better than my western. I ended up guessing alot out there, so my score is a little skewed. I got like 5 points or so on places where I just guessed. All of them in Gaul or on the Rhine frontier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonlapse Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 This stuff has been permanently seared into my brain, I could probably freehand sketch the hard quiz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caldrail Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 Well before it jammed up on me over the hugely impossible question of where to Oceanus Atlanticus I scored 115/162 on hard. Hey - who says computer games serve no purpose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
