Africa map quiz

Find all 54 countries of Africa on the map, or name each one as it lights up.

How it works

Choose Find, Name or Learn.
Find: tap the country named at the top. You have three tries; after the third it is shown to you. Skip (or the S key) saves a country for the end of the round, with the tries it has left.
Name: the country lit up on the map is the question; type its name. Spelling slips in long names are forgiven.
Drag to move the map, pinch or use + and − to zoom. Very small countries carry a dot you can tap.
At the end you see your score and time, and can play only the ones you missed.

The small coastal states: Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, Togo, Benin and the island nations are where most points go. Zoom in on the west coast and the Indian Ocean.
Typing is free: The harder Name mode, where you type each country, costs nothing here.
Learn before you play: Learn mode lets you explore the map freely before a timed round.
Practise what you missed: One tap replays just the countries you got wrong, until you know them all.

With their capitals, as the quiz asks them.

Is Western Sahara in the quiz?

It is drawn in grey and not asked, because its status is unresolved. Morocco and the Sahrawi Republic both claim it.

Is Egypt in Africa or Asia here?

Egypt is in this Africa round. The Sinai peninsula lies in Asia, but most of the country and its capital are in Africa.
