	Sucre is one of the two capitals of Bolivia. Not listed here.

	I have to admit I thought 9 minutes was a bit long since I got about 15 in less than 3 minutes, but could only manage to think of 3 more in the remaining time.

	I also agree with pete622. Sucre should either be a bonus answer or an alternate.

	Tough quiz, ran out of time, not that it would have helped much. Could have sworn I knew the correct answer for Nigeria thanks to all those emails with tempting offers, but they let me down again!

	Knowledge I learned from Sporcle quizzes sure is useful for Sporcle quizzes!

	I did Sucre; it gave me La Paz.

	What about Berne? It should accept Bern/Berne.. :(

	Sanaa being out of aphabetical order really didn't help, I thought there must be one beginning with Z.

	A geography quiz with no DRC or Kyrgyzstan? I want my money back.

	Jaxident: It is Melekeok or Ngerulmud nowadays. What is wrong with me? I got Praia but not Paris.

	daisyap:	Jun 2nd, 2010 at 13:51 GMT	1 point
	^I missed Paris too, can't believe it! Why is Sanaa at the end? I know it's often spelt Sana but then shouldn't it be a bonus answer?

	WinnieNicklaus:	Jun 2nd, 2010 at 14:46 GMT	6 points
	Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, could be a nice bonus answer. Not that anyone besides me would have typed it in, since it obviously isn't correct.

	Am I the only one who tried Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte?

	Good quiz: I'm surprised it took this long to get published!

	Grr...I also made a quiz like this, not knowing that it had already been done :( I was jealous at first until I saw the date that this was made. Seniority rules I guess...

	dje:	Jun 17th, 2010 at 05:55 GMT	-1 points
	i started typing in "boise" and salem" until i realized, this quiz wanted world capitals.

	derekpetey:	Sep 1st, 2010 at 23:38 GMT	-1 points
	@dje: Same here. Will you please put 'world' somewhere in the title or description? Thanks!

	the hague can also make a nice bonus answer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_of_the_Netherlands

	I expect to be bombed by Afghanistan because Kabul was the only one I missed.

	According to Wikipedia: "The city of Bern or Berne is the Bundesstadt (federal city, de facto capital) of Switzerland...." The Hague, on the other hand, has been the seat of the Dutch government since the end of the Eighty Years War, but not the Capital; Amsterdam is the Capital. The site you have for Wikipedia says: "It [The Hague] is located in the west of the country, in the province of South Holland, of which it is also the provincial capital."

	Oh I get Praia and Vaduz but not Tokyo. Sporclebrainism.

	ahamilton:	Apr 4th, 2011 at 11:24 GMT	1 point
	I would classify Sanaa as a bonus, since sporcle often spells it san'a'

	Acid_Snow:	Apr 5th, 2011 at 09:34 GMT	1 point
	All but Sofia :/

	jackmerlin:	Apr 20th, 2011 at 11:16 GMT	0 points
	All but Accra. Good quiz and kotte as a bonus answer.

	Wow, a lot of obscure ones with 5 letters. Had never even heard of Nauru!

	mrcottontail:	May 27th, 2011 at 13:45 GMT	1 point
	Only got Paris, Tokyo, and La Paz.
