Blank, numbered or named
The sheet opens blank. Choose Numbered to put a number on each of the 16 regions of Chile, or Named for their names, then press Print this map; the answer key prints on its own sheet.
A very long country
Chile is about 4,300 km long and on average only 180 km wide, so the map is tall and the country a narrow strip. Antofagasta and Magallanes are the largest regions; Ñuble, created in 2018, is the newest.
Print Numbered in portrait and fold the sheet in half lengthwise, north and south side by side, so students can see every region.
Questions and answers
How many regions does Chile have?
Sixteen, since Ñuble was split from Biobío in 2018. All 16 are numbered on this map, from north to south.
Which region is Santiago in?
The Santiago Metropolitan Region, in the centre of the country, one of the smallest regions by area but home to the capital.
Is Easter Island on the map?
No. Easter Island belongs to the Valparaíso region but lies about 3,500 km out in the Pacific, outside the frame.
