Geography Chain - Extremely Difficult

The questions below are ones that I believe are obscure or difficult for most people to guess. The last letter of each answer is the first letter of the next.
Put a comment below to suggest more difficult questions and I'll do my best to work them into the quiz!
Likewise, if a question is too easy, just say so and I'll remove it from the quiz.

Did not know the spelling of Raqqa. I tried variations of Rakha.

Whew. You weren't kidding that this is hard. I got two, and one of those was the fairly easy "Darfur".

Thanks! I tried to vary the difficulty so that there were a few easy ones, but based on the answer stats it looks like most of them were pretty difficult. I know that I myself wouldn't do very well on this quiz if I hadn't been the one who made it!

I love quizzes like this that send me off researching odd geographical nooks and crannies.

Tasmania as the name of the island with the same name...?

Love this quiz. Really challenging.

Regarding the Benghazi clue -- Just couldn't get it because the clue seems to suggest a word that is in the singular form ("this geometric shape") but the answer is a plural. I kinda knew the shape of the Benghazi roads, but couldn't think of A shape that started with R and ended with S. (I tried "rhombus" which isn't really right, but it never occurred to me that the shape of the city would be described - ungrammatically - as "a rings".) You can't really fix it by simply accepting ring as a type-in because no one would guess a word ending in G if they knew that the next clue starts with an S.

Maybe tweak the question to say "Shape(s) formed by the main roads of Benghazi"?
