About those ABCs…

I passed my Africa test, by the way. I identified all the countries on a blank map, on two separate occasions. It took a lot of studying, and some odd memorization tricks, but no longer will some bozo from Guinea lecture me on the difference between East and West.

And what about the capitals, you ask? That was a bit tougher. I’ll be able to name them all just as soon as Burkina Faso changes its capital to a city that contains no vowels in its name.

  2. Outstanding! ‘Wagga’ is correct. The rare capital city whose name is 70 percent comprised of vowels.
