Capitals of the World Trivia

A trivia pack devoted to the world's capital cities — every continent, every region, the obvious and the famously-tricky. From Paris and Tokyo at the easy end to Naypyidaw, Sucre and Yamoussoukro at the where-on-earth end, the pack is built for fast multiple-choice rounds.

Coverage and difficulty

The pack covers every UN-recognised country plus the most-talked-about disputed territories. Europe, the Americas and East Asia have the highest concentration of "easy mode" capitals; Central Asia, the Pacific and sub-Saharan Africa contain most of the curveballs.

A handful of questions go beyond the simple "what's the capital of X" format — capital pairs (countries with two capitals), former capitals (Bonn, Saint Petersburg, Rio de Janeiro), and capitals named after people. Multiple choice keeps the difficulty fair.

Why a capitals quiz works as a multiplayer game

Knowing 30 capitals well is enough to win plenty of rounds. The format rewards fast pattern-matching: if you can recognise Tashkent or Ulaanbaatar even without producing it from memory, the multiple-choice cue does the rest.

It's also a great schools-and-families pack — the difficulty curves smoothly from Paris to Pyongyang, so younger players get their moments alongside the geography hobbyists.
