Expedition #1168

Expedition #1168 stays in Africa at the Medium level: three legs, 12 questions and 15 different countries along the way. It opens with Bigger or smaller (3 questions), carries on with Flags (5 questions) and lands with Name the country (4 questions).

• The size leg mixes 3 duels on people and on land.
• The flags leg alternates between naming a flag and picking one: 5 questions and 11 different flags.
• In the naming leg 4 countries light up on the map and you choose each name from four.

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 45,690 km over 14 hops.

Tips from the window seat

• Bigger or smaller: For population, think of the big cities you know in each country.
• Flags: Plain tricolours are the hardest; check the colour of the middle band.
• Name the country: Look at the coastline first: which sea a country touches rules out half the options.
