About the Country Capitals Quiz
This country capitals quiz covers all 194 countries, listed alphabetically from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe. Each country has its own answer box: type the capital city and press enter. A correct answer turns green and adds one point to your score of 194.
Stuck on one? Press "show hint" to reveal the first three letters of the capital, or "show full" to uncover it (revealed answers do not count toward your score). Switch the Game toggle off at the top of the page and the whole list becomes a plain reference table of countries and capitals you can read or revise from.
Expect a few traps. Australia's capital is Canberra, not Sydney. Canada's is Ottawa, Turkey's is Ankara, Brazil's is Brasília and Bolivia's constitutional capital is Sucre. The quiz uses the official capitals, so those are the answers it accepts.
Frequently asked questions
How many countries are in the capitals quiz?
194. That is every UN member state plus the two observer states, listed in alphabetical order and grouped by first letter.
Does spelling or capitalisation matter?
Capitalisation does not; the check is case-insensitive and ignores leading or trailing spaces. Spelling does have to match, so "Washington, D.C." should be typed exactly as the hint suggests.
Can I use this as a study list instead of a quiz?
Yes. Turn the Game toggle off in the header and every capital is shown next to its country, so the page works as a printable countries and capitals list.
Is my score saved?
No. The score resets when you reload the page, which makes it easy to retake the quiz from scratch.
