To remember one's own capital city. Why is that always that hard? -- Oh also, got 100% and it says 0/5 points.

The description: "3 are easy, 2 are impossible" doesn't seem right, considering the drop off between answers 3 and 4 is only 14 percentage points.

I think Harare is one of the better-known African capitals, especially south of the Equator. Mugabe was in the news so often, and the opening of every article always started "HARARE --." Maybe not an "easy" one to get, but definitely not in the same category as Honiara.

None of them were "impossible", in fact they were all easy! Man, I must be good!

honiara is the easiest when you do know all the capitals, cause, there are only 14 capitals to remember in Oceania...

But for me (french speaker) the hardest one is Havana, cause in french we call it "La Havane"

Nice quizz.

Maybe you should make your own quiz, about capitals of non-autonomous countries/regions. From what I can see, this should be quite challenging.

They are capitals of countries. If you are really getting confused, the continents are just clues to where they are.

I just want to profusely thank the quizmaster. When I saw the emblem of the capital of my country (even if I can't stand the place), I was so excited. Thanks for making my day :) :) :) a proud Zimbabwean

Can't say I would've gotten that one without the icon. I recognized it from my coins from, what was then called, Rhodesia.

Why don't I just say it: Hanoi, Harare, Havana, Helsinki and Honiara. I guess Harare and Honiara are supposed to be the hard ones. They, btw, were my first guesses. :)

I feel like 3 minutes may be too long for 5 countries. Maybe shave off at least 15-30 seconds? But only 1/3 get 5/5 so maybe not? Idk, it feels like it should be shorter tho.
