There might be other errors, but I got stuck on this one...
- Mogadishu/Somalia (837) is closer to Victoria/Seychelles than Port Louis/Mauritus (1082)
- Dodoma/Tanzania (638) is closer to Moroni/Comoros than Mogadishu/Somalia (960)
- Abuja/Nigeria (452) is closer to Yaounde/Cameroon than Bangui/CAR (486)
- Yamousoukro/Ivory COast is closer to Accra/Ghana than Niamey/Niger (571)
Accra is the best one to show this: if we'd keep going to the closest one, we'd end up in Dakar without having visited Niamey, Ouagadougou and Bamako. To visit them we'd need to backtrack before jumping to South America, then from Niamey. The total length is then a lot longer than visiting Niamey and Ouagadougou first from Accra, before continuing down the coast
1) Skopje between Sofia and Pristina (instead of between Tirana and Athens)
2) Tokyo-Taipei-Manila-Bandar-Ngerulmud-Palikir.......P.Moresby-Dili-Jakarta-Singapore
