Which is bigger?
Tap the place with the larger area. Trust your instinct.
Eight regions. Plenty of space between your first guess and the answer. Choose the larger state or territory to see the difference.
Six states and two mainland territories
The set includes the Northern Territory and Australian Capital Territory alongside the six states. External territories and Jervis Bay are excluded. Lord Howe Island is grouped with New South Wales; separately mapped Macquarie Island is not included.
With only eight regions, familiar pairs will return sooner. Short practice rounds give you time to learn their proportions without a daily deadline.
