The description made me think of that difficult one right away.

first one I entered, crushed the timer. Apparently same as whatever prior time I did this one...

Level 60

Is Roseau really a hard one to think of?

Level 50

Jan 20, 2020

No,..but also Rosseau is not in North America, there are only three capitals in North America, Ottawa, Washington and Mexico City. So by hinting North America that confuses people. Rosseau is not on any continent: its in the Caribbean which is not considered part of any country (and neither is the Bahamas, itself not a part of the Caribbean either)

Uh, You realize that all of the caribbean with the exception of Trinidad and Tobago being partially debatable, and all of Central America(Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama) are unconditionally part of North America. Maybe you think that it's only 3 countries, but, especially on this quiz site, there are a lot more than 3 countries in North America.

Level 36

Jul 7, 2023

Central America is Central America, North America is US + Canada, eventually Mexico, Greenland and Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon

Level 52

Sep 20, 2023

On the countries of the world quiz, Dominica is put in North America.

Level 70

Jan 20, 2020

i know right, americans are so weird, why dont just say it it's in America or central america!

Level 74

Jan 20, 2020

that's the latin american conception of north america. we're not using that.

Level 24

Jan 20, 2020

you're so ignorant. You realize that all of the Caribbean is North America and not just the three biggest countries. And Central America is considered North America.

Level 63

Jan 21, 2020

The Caribbean isn't part of a country? That's news to me. I thought there were plenty of countries down there.

Level 67

Aug 31, 2020

Central America is part of South America.

@Zych can't tell if you are joking

Level 53

central america, and the caribbean are all north america, schools in the united states teach you only 3 but dont trust them.

Um, actually, I have a bigger brain than all of you so I will use my superior intelligence to clarify what you troglodytes are too simple to understand.

Mexico is in America, Bahamas are in Trinidad, Puerto Rico is in south America, Panama is in Turkey, and Cyprus is in the Mediterranean Ocean. Everyone can shut up now

Level 57

Jul 4, 2023

That's odd. Turkey is usually in Iceland at Christmas.

Level 56

Jul 13, 2023

Cyprus is in the Mediterranean you knoww

Level 55

I thought Mexico was in Beijing!!!

Ravens - you're so much more awesome than twained. Way to let him know just how awesome you are. You're awesome. Again, you = awesome.

Eatrtrig - Honestly, Ravens just has no life and wants to show off his "Potential 6/6 skill", but the reality is that he probably didn't know any of them, and just googled "world capitals that begin with r". Anyone who wants to show off skill on the internet is probably couch potato that doesn't have anything else to do with his/her life, so there. I'm with you.

Having the continent they are on helps immensely.

Level 85

Jul 14, 2016

It was a bit of a hindrance for me - only got Reykjavik at the last second. Had trouble remembering Iceland since it's off the continent.

Level 68

Jul 14, 2016

You miss 1 in 5 and gets 3 points? That doesn't seem OK.

Level 59

Jan 20, 2020

I think the scoring system is based off of the percentile of people who get up to a certain point, and almost 1/2 got 6/6, deeming that you get 3 instead of 4 points. This is my guess though, I don't have confirmation.

Level 49

Jan 20, 2020

I can confirm that's how it works.

Level 66

Jul 14, 2016

Done with 1:09 left!

Level 24

Jan 20, 2020

lol 2:04

Level 55

Jul 14, 2016

Well, you were right. Missed it.

Level 70

Jul 14, 2016

Missed Roseau, didn't have enough time to go through all the West Indies.

Level 82

Jul 14, 2016

If we didn't have the continents, Roseau would be hard, but there aren't that many countries in North America, so its quite possible to just run through them all till you get the answer.

Level 72

Oct 22, 2019

if you know the answer

Level 71

Jul 14, 2016

Roseau was actually the first capital starting with R that I could think of, but it helps to be North American.

Level 22

Jul 15, 2016

The "i" on Reykjavik should have an accent, it should read "Reykjavík".

Level 58

Jul 15, 2016

Does it really matter?

Level 47

Jul 16, 2019

Yes

Level 68

Jul 16, 2016

you forgot palestine, Ramallah

Level 43

Jul 18, 2016

Palestine isn't a country (ONU)

Level 79

Jul 2, 2023

Neither are Kosovo and Taiwan, but this site considers them as such.

Level 81

Jul 23, 2016

and Ramallah isn't even the official capital. Not that there really is one. It's just where the PNA is headquartered.

Level 51

Jul 2, 2023

So you are saying Jerusalem is the capital? It is Israel's capital, and it can only be the capital of one nation. Israel gets to choose whether or not they share their holy land with a murderous terrorist organization.

Level 56

Jul 13, 2023

Even if Palestine was a country (in my opinion it should) its capital would be East Jerusalem

Would like to see a stat for how many times Rio was attempted.

Thanks jetpunk...the only way I knew Roseau was studying capitals for quizzes. Fought with spelling as well...Thank you

Level 49

Jan 20, 2020

Missed Reykjavik. Ugh

Level 51

Jan 20, 2020

I got none of them except Roseau, the least guessed one - I'm tired right now ok?

Level 66

Jan 20, 2020

When you get Roseau and Reykjavik but not Rome or Rabat

Level 22

Apr 25, 2023

Yes, it's always Reykjavik..well that's hard to spell under pressure!

Level 61

Jun 1, 2023

6/6 with seconds to spare.

Level 56

Jul 2, 2023

Roseau was the first one I got

Level 18

Jul 2, 2023

man... i'm not joking, riyadh took me the longest to guess

Level 61

Jul 4, 2023

Nobody's talking about Riga? I got everything else with 2:17 left, but couldn't think of Riga with the remaining time.

Level 56

Feb 1, 2024

I forgot Rabat... I lived there for 4 years
