Africa capitals quiz
54 countries of Africa, 10 random questions per round. Every wrong option is a real capital from Africa.
How it works
- We show a country with its flag and four capitals — pick the right one.
- Wrong options are capitals from the same region, so you can’t guess by geography alone.
- 10 questions per round; play again for a new set with no repeats.
- Prefer flags? Switch to “Flag → capital” — you see only the flag.
