Classroom Challenges
The first three challenges can be solved entirely using the map’s country fact panels and the Continent Overview. Each question tells students exactly where to look. Choose one of the four interactive assessments in the toolbar. Each can be automatically graded, printed as a student worksheet, and printed separately as an answer key. Quiz panels can be moved by dragging their title bars.
Updated edition: Population figures are World Bank 2025 estimates where available. Area, capitals, currencies and languages have been reviewed and corrected; figures and government policies can change. The source map contains 52 profiles rather than all 54 African sovereign countries.
