Click the Countries: West Africa Map Quiz

A compact coast with a wide Sahel

West Africa has a crowded Atlantic coast and a broad inland Sahel. Nigeria and Ghana are familiar to many players, but several smaller coastal countries sit right beside them.

Ghana is a useful coastal landmark. Farther west, several small countries sit almost on top of one another at normal zoom.

How the click map quiz works

A country name appears above the map. Click it and keep going until the set is finished. The borders stay on the map, which makes this the easiest map mode to learn from.

For a map you barely know, this is usually the easiest place to start. It also works well as a refresher after leaving a region alone for a while.

Tip: If one answer keeps getting you, remember one neighbor or coastline beside it. That is usually enough to find it next time.

The coastal sequence gets crowded

The coastline is where most close misses happen. Inland, the large shapes can also blend together.
