Tips for learning Africa

Work in smaller groups

Learn the northern countries first, then work through the west, center, east, and south instead of trying to memorize every border at once.

Use the coast as an anchor

Compare coastal countries with their inland neighbors. Notice how the continent narrows toward southern Africa.

Separate similar names

The Republic of the Congo and the Democratic Republic of the Congo are different countries. Read the full prompt before selecting a location.
