Expedition #1180 stays in Africa at the Easy level: three legs, 12 questions and 15 different countries along the way. It opens with Capitals (5 questions), carries on with Flags (4 questions) and lands with Bigger or smaller (3 questions).
- The capitals leg asks for the capital of 5 countries.
- The flags leg names 4 countries and gives you four flags each time, 12 different flags in all.
- The size leg mixes 3 duels on people and on land.
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 45,070 km over 14 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.
