The answer for Guam is wrong at the moment – it's showing up as Lhasa (same as Tibet) instead of Hagatna.

No, I have not eaten guam. In the Galapagos Islands I tried a bit of guano. It tasted like bird droppings. Admittedly, I was excited by the size of the escargot. Alas, it took us a week to unshell the hors d'oeuvre.

Added a few more places. I asked a native of Easter Island if his homeland had a capital. All I got was a stony look. As I walked away I think he cursed me in his language. He said something that sounded like "Rapa Nui".
