AFCON host nations and editions

What you’ll be tested on

AFCON history is full of repeat hosts, co-hosting arrangements, and editions that moved or changed format—this quiz focuses on the “where and when.” Each question gives you 4 options and there’s no timer, so accuracy matters more than speed.

You can pick the question count and difficulty before you start. Mixed difficulty blends straightforward host-year recalls with trickier editions that are easy to confuse.

Skills you’ll practice

Build a reliable mental timeline of AFCON editions and their host nations. You’ll also improve pattern recognition—like identifying countries that hosted multiple times or hosted close together.

Common pitfalls to avoid

• Mixing up neighboring countries that hosted in similar eras
• Confusing the host nation with the tournament winner
• Forgetting repeat hosts and assuming every edition has a new country
• Overlooking editions affected by scheduling changes or notable hosting patterns
• Rushing “familiar-sounding” options instead of verifying the year/edition

How difficulty stays balanced

The quiz alternates between easier recall questions and tougher curveballs, so a single hard stretch won’t dominate your score. If you want a smoother run, lower the difficulty; if you want deeper AFCON knowledge checks, increase it and keep the full 44-question length.
