23 minutes! I blacked out and My fingers were like lightning. Very fun but I think this quiz deserves 15 points if u get em all. Shouldn’t be the same points for this quiz and JUST the countries of South America quiz.
Probably Cotonou, 27% got it, while 37% got the next least gotten answer. That's where the seat of government is, but I don't know if it's in the capitals of the world quiz. I would assume not, because, well, 10% is a LOT of people that know capitals not knowing that
Same! when I learned the african capitals porto novo was always the one nominated, I new the other one began with co.. but that was it, so frustrating, I had to do it again the next day
I got all the way down to 495/496 with 36 mins to go and I could not for the life of me figure out what I had missed because the whole map was green... took me another 10 minutes to realise it was Rhode Island
I would try this quiz, but I know I would do quite 'well', only to find out that I'm in the 40th percentile with 1 point. No, I will leave this to you lot
That was a lot of work. I only forgot Annapolis, Maryland in the US (my own country, but it's crowded in that region).
One tip: do all the small countries/capitals first, so as to not forget them (Vatican City, San Marino, etc). Focusing on the ones that are difficult to see on the map helps, since you can't ignore the big ones.
This American got all the (easy for me) US states and capitals, did fair with international capitals, and got all the countries ... or so I thought. Read the instructions, including the tip about the USA highlighting Puerto Rico. And then ... didn't type it in. *facepalm*
496/496 awesome, it was great to be given an appropriate amount of time. Most quizzes rush you with arbitrarily short time limits and it's harder to think then. Great quiz.
Great quiz, but please add a feature allowing you to see places you're missing (some other quizzes have black dots, for example). The circles for the capitals are so large that they completely cover small countries like Kosovo and Montenegro, which made me miss them.
I think this quiz needs a *show remaining countries* option like the OG countries of the world quiz. With the circles for the capitals sometimes its very hard to see if you've hit a country even after zooming in.
Does anyone else have trouble seeing some of the smaller states and countries as they are obscured by the capital circles? I'd like a way to turn the cities on and off to see which areas are missing.
Hi, Super Fun quiz. Please can you do a Hard Version, exactly the same, but with an Empty Map where Countries/Capitals/States appear when entered? Time does not need to be increased. Perhaps list Puerto Rico as?
my new favorite quiz; just discovered it today! Did it 3 or 4 times already--average time is about 40 minutes. Only the first time I didn't get Cotonou (Benin). Not listed in World Capitals quiz, but no worries; for this one I'll use it. Tedious indeed, but lots of fun!
nearly forgot to type in the United States! also please accept Porto-Novo as a type-in for Cotonou, as it is the official capital, especially if you're going to count Amsterdam as the capital of the Netherlands when if you're going by "de facto" it's The Hague
Love this quiz; do it almost every day! Average time is about 22 minutes. Goal is to do it in less than 20. Also to not forget any and go back by looking at the list. Usually I have just a few (anywhere from 1 to 10) that I had forgotten, mostly small countries. Twice I got them all without having to look at the list.
This quiz must be the way Americans think the world is. All the countries, then each of their unimportant states separate from others on the same level as real countries. Spoiler alert Americans: your state is not important and is NOT the equivalent of a country, no matter what you think.
Started with the state capitals, and was really confused when the Annapolis dot stayed yellow after typing it several times. Took me some time to realize that I was fooled by the D.C. dot.
Great quiz that unites the main quizzes from JetPunk.
However, I just wish the answers were presented in a better way instead of plain alphabetical order. Sometimes you might type the capital before the country, as when I typed Jamaica -> Kingston. That automatically counted for Kingstown, even though I hadn’t typed Saint Vincent yet. Since the capital completely hides the country, it looked like I had already answered both.
If the typed-in answers were at least divided into “Countries,” “States,” “Capitals,” and “State Capitals,” the quiz would communicate our progress much better.
This is truly my favorite quiz, not only does it have every country and capital but has all the extra capitals that in some other quizzes you don't have to put in. The time limit is high I'd say though, every time I've done it I had more than 20 minutes to spare.
None the less, so glad it's here. Somehow, I always forget United States, Hawaii, and Honolulu, they're the last ones I get.
I think every city that shared its name with the parent land was accepted, except Oklahoma City. Also, the country Colombia lit up when I typed the capital of South Carolina, which should not happen, regardless how how forgiving you want to be. I see too many people call that country Columbia.
What was missing?

Just type Bolivia on Google, it’s a 3 seconds search.
There are definitely some issues with the visibility of small countries/states if the capital dot above is already green.
I do not understand why you have to also type Cotonou for Benin, while the capital city is Porto Novo
I find if you want to complete the quiz at the hardest difficulty, don't use the map (zoom in to the bottom left corner).
I completed the quiz with 100% after 21 minutes 15 seconds with no map or using the answer chart.
I wouldn't mind a correction in either direction, but right now, it doesn't really make sense to me?
Salt Lake City is often called simply "Salt Lake". "I was in Salt Lake this weekend for a conference".
Oklahoma City is not generally called "Oklahoma".
When it comes to Mexico and Guatemala I was assured by people in those places that leaving "City" out was appropriate.
Why do three quizzes when you can do just one
Took me a while to think of the second capital for Benin.
washington dc.
Edit: Never mind, got them all. The one I had originally missed was Delaware.
Maybe make the colours more obvious to which ones have been missed

This quiz did a number on my finger joints.
Didn't get Swaziland because in my head i already checked it with Eswatini before.
I think this needs to be updated.
