Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Crows probably don't fly quite this far, but I want to start this quiz off in a big way. Which pair of African capital cities is farthest apart, as the crow flies?
2. Our beloved crow is quite tired after the first flight, so now it's time for a much shorter voyage. A flight between which two African capitals would be the shortest for our crow?
3. With the two extremes out of the crow's way, it's time for something completely different. Our thirsty crow takes off from Rabat flying straight towards Djibouti, Djibouti. How many times does the crow cross the Nile River?
4. Our globetrotter crow would now like to take a day trip to Asia from the city of Djibouti in Djibouti. What is the nearest Asian capital city to Djibouti?
5. After getting its fill of Atlantic waters, our squeaky-clean crow now decides to fly from Windhoek to Freetown. Which countries will the crow visit?
6. Our adventurous crow now journeys from Freetown to Kigali. Along the way, it flies directly over an island which is home to the capital of a mainland African country. However, this island capital is actually closer to the mainland shores of two other countries than it is to its own mainland region. Which capital is it?
7. Perched on a hotel in Kigali, our crow decides to see some real sights. It knows eight capital destinations that would have it fly directly over Lake Tanganyika. The first seven are Gaborone, Pretoria, Maseru, Mbabane, Maputo, Lusaka, and Harare. Which is the eighth capital?
8. Our frequent flier crow next finds himself in Pretoria. From here, the crow can easily fly to four other African capitals within a 300 mile radius. However, Pretoria is not quite unique in this regard. What is the only other African capital that has four other capitals within a 300 mile radius around it?
9. From Pretoria, our feathered friend flies directly to the most centrally-located capital in Africa. This capital is no more than 2,513 miles from all other mainland African capitals. Which capital city is it?
10. Our poor crow is so very tired from all his flights, and you may be too. So, our favorite crow's last flight will be from Lome, where he will fly due west until he runs right into another capital. This capital is the only world capital named after an American President (excluding Washington D.C.). Which capital is it?
