I've never even come close - and it's not for lack of trying!
And Canada's capital is not even on the list!
Try to guess the world capital cities whose names have only 4 or 5 letters.
Name a country. An arrow will appear, pointing to the mystery country. Keep guessing until you pin down the mystery country!

Two issues: Addis Abeba is incorrect spelling and Stoccolma is not what it's called in Swedish (or English for that matter).

This is ambiguous. New Delhi is very much a part of Delhi and is commonly used to refer the capital.

I agree with the previous commenters. Many quizzes accept Delhi as a correct answer.

Delhi not the capital of India - it's New Delhi?

That's like saying Washington is not the capital of the US - It's Washington DC.

Ridiculous.

I was thinking the entire time Delhi might be a trick answer the entire time, but since I couldn't find the last capital I did it and was so close to 100%

While New Delhi is indeed India's capital, the fact remains that "Delhi" is universally accepted by Jetpunk as a correct answer. You should either also accept this as a correct answer or remove the entry from the quiz entirely.

Remove Delhi please, the quiz is completely ruined by this ambiguity

Delhi tripped me up too. I realize it should be New Delhi. But every other quiz I've taken on this site accepts Delhi so I've gotten used to it. I would have liked to have finished without this hiccup to see how well I would have done.

But otherwise I do appreciate the time and trouble taken in setting this up. So thank you, overall. Hopefully the bugs can be worked out? :0)

Johannesburg is ambiguous, since it is one of the three capitals of South Africa. Can you replace it?

After the various requests I read I eliminated Delhi as a wrong answer. I had added it as a trick answer but I can understand the reasons you listed.
