Expedition #1112

Expedition #1112 stays in Oceania at the Medium level: three legs, 9 questions and 11 different countries along the way. It opens with Name the country (4 questions), carries on with Bigger or smaller (2 questions) and lands with Capitals (3 questions).

• In the naming leg 4 countries light up on the map and you choose each name from four.
• The size leg is 2 population duels: which of two countries has more people?
• The capitals leg asks for the capital of 3 countries.

The Medium setting widens the pool and keeps the wrong answers on the same continent: neighbours are not far away.

The full route, drawn from capital to capital as the questions come, measures 31,690 km: 10 hops in all.

Tips from the window seat

• Name the country: Count the neighbours you recognise around the yellow shape.
• Bigger or smaller: Do not trust the map for area: flat maps distort sizes.
• Capitals: Capitals that are not the largest city are the classic trap.
