Africa is the toughest continent for most flag-quiz players — 54 sovereign nations, many sharing the same Pan-African colours (red, gold, green, black) inherited from Ethiopia's flag and the post-colonial wave of the 1960s. The continent is full of look-alike pairs: Mali vs Senegal vs Guinea, Cameroon vs Senegal, Chad vs Romania, Côte d'Ivoire vs Ireland (reversed), Mauritania's green crescent vs the broader Maghreb green-crescent family. Knowing African flags well is a true mark of a flag enthusiast. Drill subregions — North Africa (Maghreb), West Africa, East Africa, Central Africa, Southern Africa — by picking a mode and filtering to Africa. Streak and Champion Marathon are especially rewarding here because the question pool is large and varied.
