Can you also add Melekeok for the capital of Palau please? That's the only reason I missed it, and I can't be bothered to learn the spelling of that Ngerlamud place :P
The accepted type in is normally just Kotte, and in this case Colombo is the type in, JetPunk generally recognizes Sri Oahbsaobhaeoibheio Kotte as the capital.
Yeah, in a geography bee there was a question about the two closest capitals in Europe, and I put Vatican City and Rome, my teacher explained it different each time, once as it isn't technically a country by the UN, just an observer. Another time he said that it was too small to have a capital. Great teacher though. Apparently the answer was Vienna, Austria and Bratislava, Slovakia.
The top 2 answer pairs are both featured on my Adjacent Capital City Superlatives quiz if you want to look it up. I'm feeling too lazy to link to it right now.
I think you should accept Sucre for La Paz, because either one is normally accepted in the capital quizzes. I usually type in Sucre because it's faster to type than La Paz, so when it didn't accept Sucre, I left Bolivia and went looking at other countries...
It's one of the capitals of Bolivia, both La Paz and Sucre are the Capitals, it may not be what the UN thinks but the UN doesn't recognize The Vatican, Kosovo or Taiwan as countries either.
JetPunk just normally accepts multiple capitals for some countries, (ie: South Africa, Bolivia).
For some strange reason, I have always thought that the capital of the Solomon Islands was spelled "Honaria." Now I know that it is not right, but you usually allow lots of "almost but not quite right" type ins for answers, so I was wondering if you could accept this. I am sure this works on other quizzes on this site.
Isn't Taipei just a random city in China? Isn't the capital of China Beijing? How is Taiwan even considered a country if only 12 countries out of around 200 countries recognize Taiwan? Even the US doesn't recognize Taiwan.
I thought Beijing is closer to Tokyo than to Pyongyang or Seoul. My bad.
