About the history section: I'm not completely sure. And the capitals asked are capitals of the government, not the emperor.

You can get a lot of them by copying the name of the area. Still a good quiz.

It would be even worse if I'd put the name of the era instead of the year. Almost all of them are named after the capital of that time...

Why does "Heian" come up when you type "Kyoto" once but not the other Heian? There are also many former capitals missing, like Nagaoka-kyo and Asuka.
