Country and Capital Neighbour Connect with Jumps and Disappearing World Map: Closest to ⬤
In this quiz country centroids (ie geographical centers) and capitals are combined: countries (country centroids) are 'blue' and capitals are 'pink'.
Always choose the neighbour that is closest to ⬤ where a neighbour is any of the following:
- a bordering country
- the capital of a bordering country
- the corresponding country/capital of your last answer
When left with no neighbors jump to a different island! Go to the capital/country closest to ⬤ that hasn't been mentioned yet.
Start with the country/capital of the world closest to ⬤: SUDAN!
The dot was picked at average latitude/longitude of all countries/capitals

Jumping idea from Eutychus
Don't forget that this map can heavily distort distances!!

Then again in >South Sudan>CAR>N'Djamena, where the first two are very close and the third one is clearly outright wrong, which makes me start doubting the others.
So it's like the answer is what you're claiming it is unless you felt like arbitrarily making it any of the other valid neighbors. That's not really a quiz. That's like "guess the random order of the countries with no hints". Because you *usually* stick to the order, the answers are somewhat guessable. Because you do not always stick to it, the quiz is neither fun nor interesting.
Think you need to go back to the drawing board with this one and figure out what went wrong with the answers. Either that or explain the missing rule(s).
At the point of reaching the end of a specific landmass the system resets to whatever country/capital is closest to the dot and the tour through bordering nations starts up again.
It is a complicated ruleset and admittedly it took a couple of attempts to fully understand it myself, but the further I've got with each attempt the more I've started to grasp the concept and as such, it's much more enjoyable now.
