Know Thyself.
Before the world can know Afrika, Afrika has to know itself. Hover any country on the real map below to meet it — and put yourself to the test with the quiz, the trivia, and today's page in Afrikan history.
Afrika, drawn accurately.
Real surveyed borders for all 54 Afrikan nations plus Western Sahara — every island nation included, at true size and position — rendered on the Equal Earth projection, the same one the Afrikan Union adopted as its own standard in 2025 to correct the standard Mercator map's habit of shrinking Afrika. Hover any country for its name and capital. Seven countries — highlighted in gold — go much deeper: flag meaning, population, independence history, current leadership, historical figures, geography and more.
