	You should make Sucre be an acceptable answer for Bolivia because Bolivia has 2 capitals.

	TO nearlyextinct: If one city is to be chosen, it is usually the administrative (executive) capital (which is La Paz). Accordingly, for South Africa it is Pretoria, not Kaapstad (I like this name). TO the author: Please, make also "Brasília" an acceptable form along with "Brasilia".

	@GeoExpert: "Kaapstad" is the Afrikaans name for Cape Town. And Bloemfontein is spelled "Bloemfontein."

	@Anne13, French Guiana is not a sovereign state, but rather an overseas region of France.

To quote Chapter 1 Article 6 of the Bolivian Constitution "Sucre es la Capital de Bolivia" English translation: Sure is the capital of Bolivia.

	La Paz over Sucre? Then The Hague should be the capital of the Netherlands as the government (legislative, executive and judical) has its seat there. But that'd be ridiculous as the capital in every other way is Amsterdam.

	It may just me my computer, but does anyone else find that this games keeps glitching?

	Sorry, game, not games.

	I always seem to want to call it ParamarAibo...

	I just want to say that I did awful on this quiz, and that's bad news, because I want to do better on the Capitals of the World quiz. I just want to put that out there.

	@ che: And translated to French, "Sucre es la Capital de Bolivia" might become "Sugar is the Capital of Bolivia".

	not much of a Geo Expert, is he?

	the thing that took the longest? remembering the accent code for "o" for "asunción". was it required? of course not. but it made the answer SO much cooler. :D

	gatesof:	May 23rd, 2011 at 20:30 GMT		4 points
	I think Paris should be included, as the capital of French Guiana.

	One minute should be enough.. either you know them or you don't.. That would be a real test.. And that 'GeoExpert'... hehe

	@lhippocampe: Well, you're more than welcomed and able to try to get them in under a minute. What difference does it really make? I just never get the complaints about "too much time." Do it or don't. What are you trying to prove, anyway?

	jimmydoom:	Aug 31st, 2011 at 22:55 GMT		-2 points
	ummm, i entered every right answer (and yes, i spelled them all correctly) and the only one it accepted was buenos aires. game is glitchy.

	ari18:	Oct 17th, 2011 at 22:35 GMT		2 points
	Wish this quiz and the North America one weren't alphabetical. You always input the same answers in the same order :(

	Ubbiebubbie:	Nov 20th, 2011 at 02:00 GMT		2 points
	@jimmydoom: You do realize that the answers had to be answered in order (Argentina, Bolivia...), right? That would seem to be the reason for your predicament.

	I dont't get why everyone only comments on quizzes just to share their scores. Honestly, no one really cares! I also agree with the "time-adjusting" comments.

	KenGHarrison:	Dec 31st, 2011 at 14:22 GMT		3 points
	This quiz is screwy. It doesn't say anything about them "having to be answered in order", and won't accept a number of correct answers.

	Basketca:	Jan 11th, 2012 at 14:52 GMT		0 points
	I do think there's too much time, I got them all in around 30 seconds, but doesn't really matter ;) At school, I learned South Africa's capital was Cape Town, but they told as it had 4 capitals. But I never heard anything similar about Bolivia :S I've always heard, at school, in TV etc. that La Paz is its capital.

	You should accept less time for this quiz.

	I put Montevideo and Brasilia and it didn't accept them????

	???Quito is not the capital of Ecuador??? uhm...

	Piraat:	Jun 27th, 2012 at 18:12 GMT		2 points
	GJS10 and catover4774, note that the quiz must be answered in order, starting with Argentina's capital!

	taylorswift12:	Feb 3rd, 2013 at 18:02 GMT		1 point
	catlover4774: Yes, Quito is the capital of Ecuador. Maybe you were on the wrong country.
