Find the Country from a Point: West Africa 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 point map quiz works

A point appears somewhere on the map. Type the country that actually contains it. The round keeps going through all 16 countries.

Point mode works best on a map you already know pretty well. It exposes fuzzy boundaries quickly.

Tip: Points near borders are the nasty ones. Check which side of the border the dot is really on.

The coastal sequence gets crowded

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