Expedition #1120

Expedition #1120 stays in Africa at the Medium level: three legs, 12 questions and 12 different countries along the way. It opens with Flags (4 questions), carries on with Name the country (4 questions) and lands with Capitals (4 questions).

• The flags leg names 4 countries and gives you four flags each time, 14 different flags in all.
• In the naming leg 4 countries light up on the map and you choose each name from four.
• The capitals leg turns things round: 4 capitals, and you name the country of each.

At the Medium level most of the region is in play and the wrong options are fellow countries of the same continent.

Capital to capital, in question order, the route covers 27,900 km over 11 hops.

Tips from the window seat

• Flags: Look for the small details: a star, a crescent, an emblem.
• Name the country: Count the neighbours you recognise around the yellow shape.
• Capitals: Say the pair in both directions in your head after each answer.
