On expedition #1051 you cross Africa at the Easy level. The route has 17 stops spread over 14 questions in three legs: Capitals (5 questions), Flags (6 questions) and finally Bigger or smaller (3 questions).
- The capitals leg turns things round: 5 capitals, and you name the country of each.
- The flags leg shows 6 flags and asks for their countries; 6 different flags pass in front of you.
- The size leg is 3 population duels: which of two countries has more people?
At the Easy level the quiz sticks to the most familiar countries of the region and fills the wrong options with countries from elsewhere: a good first trip.
Capital to capital, in question order, the route covers 60,070 km over 16 hops.
Tips from the window seat
- Capitals: Capitals that are not the largest city are the classic trap.
- Flags: Plain tricolours are the hardest; check the colour of the middle band.
- Bigger or smaller: Do not trust the map for area: flat maps distort sizes.
