Africa Flag Quiz
Can you name all 54 African flags?
Africa has 54 countries, and their flags fall into families that make this quiz far harder than a world round. Every wrong option here is African too, so you cannot rule anything out by continent — and that matters most with the pan-African colours. Ghana, Mali, Senegal, Guinea, Cameroon, Benin, Burkina Faso, Togo and Ethiopia all work in red, yellow and green, and telling them apart comes down to the order of the bands and whether there is a star in the middle. The north has its own family: Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Mauritania and the Comoros all carry a crescent, and the differences are in the colour and the placement rather than the symbol. Each round draws 10 of the 54 at random, gives you four options and shows the answer the moment you pick, so the families start to separate as you play. Free, instant, and just as comfortable on a phone.
Frequently asked questions
How many flags are in the Africa flag quiz?
All 54 — every sovereign state on the continent, from Algeria to Zimbabwe, including the island nations that are easy to forget: Cape Verde, the Comoros, Madagascar, Mauritius, São Tomé and Príncipe, and the Seychelles. Ten are drawn at random each round.
Which African flags are hardest to tell apart?
The pan-African trio of red, yellow and green is the classic trap: Ghana, Mali, Senegal, Guinea, Cameroon, Benin, Burkina Faso and Togo all use those colours, and several differ only in the order of the bands or a single star. The North African crescent flags — Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Mauritania and the Comoros — are the second group worth studying.
Is this quiz multiple choice?
Yes. A flag appears, you pick the country from four options, and the correct answer shows straight away. Every wrong option is another African country, which is what makes the round harder than the world flag quiz.
Is it harder than the world flag quiz?
Considerably. In the world quiz an African flag often stands against flags from other continents, which narrows it down before you look closely. Here the whole board is African. One trap does disappear, though: Chad against Romania cannot come up, because Romania is not in this pool.
