About the Capitals of Africa quiz

This capital cities quiz Africa edition asks for the capitals of 46 African countries, with every option drawn from African capitals, which makes it one of the hardest capitals quizzes on the site.

Watch out for the famous traps: the capital of Nigeria is Abuja rather than Lagos and the capital of Morocco is Rabat rather than Casablanca. Then come the lesser-known ones like Ouagadougou, Antananarivo and Nouakchott.

Each match is a live 1v1 duel: the same 7 questions for both players, 10 seconds per question, more points for faster correct answers and double points at the end.
