Progressive Hints — No Spoilers
01
Today’s country is on the African continent. It’s located in the southernmost part of the continent — guessing any large African nation will give you a warm or hot reading almost immediately, making this a fast puzzle to navigate.
Continent
02
The country occupies the very southern tip of Africa — it is as far south as you can go on the continent. It borders the Atlantic Ocean on the west coast and the Indian Ocean on the east and south coasts. It is not landlocked.
Geography
03
This is one of Africa’s largest and most populous countries — it covers over 1.2 million km² and has a population of around 60 million. It is the continent’s most industrialised economy and a major global producer of gold and platinum.
Size & Economy
04
The country has three capital cities — one of the few nations in the world to do so. Each city serves a different branch of government: executive, legislative, and judicial. This is a well-known geography trivia fact about this country.
Capitals
05
The country completely surrounds one smaller nation — an enclave country entirely within its borders. It also borders Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, and Eswatini. If you guessed any of these neighbours and saw a very hot or red result, this is the next logical guess.
Borders
06
The country’s name is a straightforward geographic descriptor — it is literally named after its position on the African continent: the southern part. It hosted the FIFA World Cup in 2010, becoming the first African nation to do so.
