Stewart

Strasbourg is a "capital of European Union" but not a "capital of Europe", and so should not count. The answers in this quiz refer only to the capital cities of europe.

Strasbourg should indeed not count, as it's a capital of the European Union, but not the capital of the country it is in. By the way, kudos to this quiz for acknowledging that the EU indeed has three capitals, and not just one in Brussels!

I think foxyfab is making the same point that I was in the first comment, namely that it really is pretty pointless to have English "translations" of foreign towns and countries. Why not simply use the original names throughout?
Quizmaster

Jan 29, 2020
Lots of reasons. For one, the translations are easier to pronounce. Secondly, they are easier to spell. Finally, what about countries that use a non-Roman alphabet? Should we expect people to learn Cyrillic and Chinese characters?

No. It's an isolated demand for rigor.
JonOfKent
+5
Level 60
Apr 5, 2025
Pff. I don't think it's a demand for rigour at all, I think it's totally irrational. It's basically saying 'if the people near a certain inanimate object call it such-and-such, that's the same name that everyone who lives further away must use'. I've never understood why that should follow. It always strikes me as one of those things that seems to be obvious until you actually have to start justifying it.
Quizmaster
+4
Level ∞
Apr 5, 2025
My point is that it's an isolated demand for rigor, because people who makes these demands do not consider the implications.

They are not insisting we call China "中华" or Hungary "Magyarország".

They are insisting that we use the native name for the one place they happen to know or care about. But they themselves are generally ignorant about all the other place names. Worse, they often accuse others of ignorance.

England is not a "country" in this sense, meaning a sovereign state in its own right recognised on JetPunk. The country in this case is actually United Kingdom, which does not contain "land".
