In 1.

So what's the clue you get on a wrong guess?

Distance to, and direction.

I have to say that I was disappointed that the solutions aren't along the lines of CASH, DOLLY, CLYNE, etc

Fucking failed today.

Started out in East Asia, then the Gulf, which gave me clarity that it actually had to be Africa but messed up after getting REALLY close with my second last turn (only 1000km away)
Shocking lack of topographical knowledge.

I got onto the wrong track by thinking smaller West African nations are narrow from south to north

Yeah my knowledge of the shape and precise location of a lot of African countries is pretty poor - Guessing Gabon really didn't help me that much, but it telling me it was north east meant I knew the general area of Africa at least. Knew it wasn't Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Senegal etc and just lucked out on my 5th go

Got it with my last attempt, obviously a kilometre is far far less than I think it is.

Only done three and they all have been. Random orientation would be a bitch...

I thought I was cheating looking at an atlas.

So the only 2 times I tried it I got it in 1.

I did word it ambiguously. I feel the need to point out that the looking over my atlas was in the past.

Toughie. Once I had which end of the continent, just guessing until I had it.

Didn't recognise the shape of the country itself, but I knew that tail bit sticking into it was The DRC. Knew Zambia, Zimbabwe and Mozambique were the best candidates and Zambia was the leading one. My geography knowledge of Africa is a smidgen better than I thought.

What threw me was the southern border which looked like a maritime border.

Well I thought The DRC's tail was to give it access to the Zambezi, and figured that as Zambia was upriver to Zimbabwe that that was the best guess. While I was right with my guess, the Zambezi is nowhere near there, so you know, back to the dunce's corner for me.
