🌍 Capitals

10 questions about world capitals. 4 choices, no pressure!

How to Play

Capitals is a world geography quiz built around one promise: four choices, no pressure. You get ten questions, each about a country and its capital city, and every question offers four multiple-choice answers. There is no countdown timer anywhere, so you can read each question at your own pace, weigh the options, and click when you are actually ready.

Scoring is deliberately simple. Each correct answer is worth 10 points, and with ten questions a perfect game scores exactly 100. There is no partial credit and no speed bonus, so the only thing that separates a good score from a great one is how many capitals you genuinely know. Every question gives instant feedback, so you find out right away whether your pick was right or whether the correct answer was the one you hesitated over.

The question pool draws from world capitals broadly, so a single round might cover Australia, a South American country, and a European one. Because the format is multiple choice, the quiz rewards recognising the right city from a list of plausible ones — a skill that works in your favour even when you are not certain. At the end you get a final score out of 100, shareable over WhatsApp or Telegram, or as a copyable link that carries your result.

Example

Question four asks: "What is the capital of Canada?" The options are Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa, and Montreal. If you know Ottawa is the seat of the federal government, you click it, get the instant confirmation, and bank 10 points. Later, question seven asks for the capital of Australia, with Canberra, Sydney, Melbourne, and Perth on offer. Sydney and Melbourne are the famous cities, but the answer is Canberra. Pick Sydney and the quiz marks it wrong, showing that Canberra was correct — you miss the points but keep the correction, which is exactly how the quiz teaches. Finish with eight correct out of ten and you score 80, a solid result you can share as a link.

Strategy & Tips

Variations & Difficulty Levels

The quiz has no selectable difficulty tiers, but the challenge varies naturally with the countries that come up in a given round. Some rounds lean on capitals most people know cold, like Paris or London, and feel like warm-ups. Others pull in capitals famous only to geography enthusiasts, and those decide how hard a round feels.

The question framing also varies. Sometimes the country is named and you pick the capital; other times the capital is named and you pick the country from the four choices. The format always leaves one clearly correct answer and three plausible-but-wrong alternatives, but the reversals mean you have to know each pair in both directions to score 100. With no timer adding pressure, the only difficulty that matters is your own recall, which makes repeat plays a genuine test of improvement.

Common Mistakes & Edge Cases

The classic error is picking a country's largest or most famous city instead of its capital. Sydney is not Australia's capital, and New York is not the capital of the United States, yet both keep appearing as tempting wrong answers. Another recurring slip is confusing two capitals that sound alike or sit in the same region when both appear on one answer list.

An edge case worth knowing: some countries have capitals that are deliberately less famous than their biggest city, which makes the decoy look stronger than the right answer. There are also questions where two of the four options are real capitals of other countries, so a quick elimination pass is essential. And do not let a confident guess become a habit — an answer that comes from reasoning sticks in memory for the next round.
