Capital cities
Capitals of the Americas Quiz
This quiz has the capital cities of 35 countries in the Americas. Pick the right capital from four choices, or switch to typed mode below if you want it harder. Every answer is listed under the game.
How to play: each question names a country; tap its capital or press 1 to 4. The wrong choices are mostly other big cities of the same country, so the biggest city is often a trap. After each answer you see a short note when a country has a second capital. Capitals follow the national constitutions and governments as listed on Quiz Zoomies (checked October 2026).
