Pin Africa on a Borderless Map

Drag the pin onto the correct country. Careful, though! Three wrong moves and the game ends.

Hint: Use the arrows to scroll through the countries and get the ones you know.

Mobile users: Start with the coast. You can safely rest a country’s pin on a country that's already been guessed correctly.

You may put the pin down on the water or on countries that have already been correctly labelled.
On the border doesn’t count. Be inside the border!

Why isn't this instantly featured?

And I can never remember where Togo and Benin go.. which one is the Sandwich filling of Togo Benin and Ghana, why do I always forget..

And was not totally sure on the placement of Guinea and Guinea-bissau, I got it right, but it was still a slight guess.. they were the two I kept for last.

The only reason I can think of is that Quizmaster knows that they will get featured through nominations relatively soon. Maybe also the fact that he can't really fix issues with these quizzes, so it would be best to wait for some time in case anything happens.

Hello Dimby, I Thoroughly Enjoyed Your Quiz, thank you. I'm afraid I haven't read all the comments, so my question may well have already been answered...Please may you do the Same Quiz, for the World? I am certainly guilty as a Non contributor of quizzes, of Not Acknowledging the Time involved in Creating these Masterpieces! BUT, they Provide So Much Enjoyment, Pleasure and a rather Fabulous and Educational distraction from life when it is proving challenging. Will you give me(and All the lovely Jetpunk Community) The World?
