About this quiz
Some states are easy to know from their outline, such as Rio Grande do Sul at the southern tip or the Federal District, a small block in the middle of Goiás. Others are harder: Mato Grosso do Sul was split off from Mato Grosso in 1977, and Tocantins from Goiás in 1988. Every outline is drawn north up, as on the map.

The wrong answers come from the same region first, so neighbours such as Paraíba and Rio Grande do Norte or Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul are easier to mix up.
