A few countries have several capitals. The game uses the official capital and explains it on the country page: Sucre rather than La Paz for Bolivia, Pretoria for South Africa, Amsterdam for the Netherlands.
The wrong options are real cities from the same continent, often the country’s largest city: that is the most common trap. Every right answer adds the capital stamp to your passport.
