A Jordanian governorate narrows a round down to a slice of the country, and the district is the tier that names a place. The districts are very unequal, from a handful of square kilometres in the Jordan Valley hills to desert blocks bigger than some governorates, so the map rewards learning the crowded north and west before the empty east.
The districts (alwiya) of each governorate. A governorate holds between one and nine, and the file draws Jerash as a single district. Names are given in the transliteration the boundary data uses, so you will meet spellings such as Al-Aqaba beside the Aqaba you may know.
The groups are the twelve governorates, so the game lets you drill them one at a time. Each governorate answers under the same name in Jordan Governorates.
Amman is a district of its own, around the capital. It is in the middle of the populated west, with Sahab, Na'ur and Wadi al-Sayr on its other sides.
Hariema is the smallest district on the map, a few square kilometres in the north-west of Irbid. It is easy to miss because it sits against much larger neighbours.
Ma'an is the largest district by area, a wide block of southern desert that runs to the Saudi border.
The boundary data used here draws 52, across the 12 governorates. Some lists count 51 or leave out sub-districts, so a map from another source may differ.
No. The twelve governorates are the tier above, and each district belongs to exactly one of them. Those are the groups in this quiz.
Arabic names have no single English spelling, and the quiz keeps the transliteration of its boundary data throughout so that the names match across the two games.
The tier above this one is Jordan Governorates. For another Asian country at this level, see Sri Lanka Districts.
