African Countries and Capitals...

With the recent turmoil in the North African region and the Middle East, it’s not a surprise that such nations have caught the attention of ours.

I guess, this would be an ideal time to look into the basics once again. Remember I posted the list of capitals of the countries in Asia, South America and Europe earlier? Moving on from there, let’s now look at the capitals of the countries of the African continent.

Capital cities clockwise - Tunis (Tunisia), Harare (Zimbabwe), Cairo (Egypt), Accra (Ghana)

Please note that some countries like Cote d’Ivoire and Nigeria have named new cities as their capitals in the recent past. Hope this would be useful.
