Perhaps I don't get this, but some of these aren't mulitple capitals, they're an old capital e.g. Lagos and the new one e.g. Abuja. Rangoon, btw, is now called Yangon and is not recognised as the capital of Myanmar, which is located in Naypyidaw.

I agree with riddler. This is a mix of countries that presently have multiple capitals (Bolivia/Netherlands/South Africa) with others where the capital was moved to another city (but that, at a given date, had only *one* capital). This should be made clear in the title. If Lagos/Abuja is included, why not Rio de Janeiro/Brasília? Yes, this was fifty years ago. But if no time limit is specified in the instructions...

It was not at all clear to me how I was supposed to answer. I tried all kinds of formats ("Cape Town", "Cape Town, South Africa", "South Africa Cape Town", etc.) and finally just gave up.

zifyoip, as for South Africa, there are three capitals. That is probably why you are struggling.

@Jennifer: No, I was struggling because I didn't realize I had to enter all of the capitals at once—I thought I should enter them one at a time, so I was trying to get "Cape Town" accepted by itself without realizing that I was supposed to type "Pretoria and Cape Town and Bloemfontein". You should clarify this in the instructions by explaining what format the answers are in.
