West Africa Find the Point Map Quiz | Smurdy
Identify the West Africa country that contains each point placed on the map.
What this West Africa quiz covers
West Africa runs from the Atlantic coast into the Sahel and the inland countries behind the Gulf of Guinea. The group includes Senegal, Mali, Ghana, Nigeria, Ivory Coast, and many smaller neighbors.
How the point map quiz works
A point appears somewhere inside one of the places in this group. Type the name of the country that contains it. The round covers all 16 countries and tests whether you understand the full area of each place rather than only recognizing its outline.
Gameplay tip: Check the point against coastlines and nearby countries before answering, especially when it sits close to a border.
What makes this group challenging
The coastline contains many smaller countries packed between larger neighbors, while several inland states have similar broad shapes.
Study tip
Trace the coast from Senegal to Nigeria, then use that coastal order to place Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger inland.
