1. Gitega is the capital of Burundi, not Bujumbura

2. The Pan-American highway does not connect Chile to Alaska because of the Darien Gap between Panama & Colombia

Otherwise, good quiz!

the quiz did not say capital, it said where is the city. The Pan American highway is the longest road, excluding the Darien Gap
