(CNN) If there was ever a candidate for an obscure question on a television quiz show, it's the Caprivi Strip in northern Namibia. As a tourist destination, the Caprivi has only recently come into its own. Like much of the central Caprivi, the lodge sits astride the elephant migration route between eastern Angola and the Okavango. The panhandle is named for German Chancellor Leo von Caprivi, who brokered the deal to create the Caprivi in 1890. In return for granting the Germans control of the region, the British got the island of Zanzibar in East Africa.
