Some people can rattle off state capitals without blinking. Others get halfway through a long-haul flight and still couldn’t tell you whether Canberra or Sydney runs the show in Australia. Wherever you sit on that scale, this one’s for you.

Fifteen questions, a flag stamp on every one, and a handful of capitals that catch out even well-travelled players. Answer as many as you can, watch the plane creep across your boarding pass with every question, and find out at the end whether you’re cleared for Globetrotter status or still working on your Local Tourist badge.

FAQs:

How many questions are in the world capitals quiz?
Fifteen multiple-choice questions, each covering a different country’s capital, mixing well-known answers with a few that trip people up.

Can I retake the quiz?
Yes – tap “Fly again” at the end and both the question order and answer order reshuffle, so it plays a little differently each time.

What’s the hardest capital in the quiz?
Most players stumble on capitals that aren’t a country’s biggest or most famous city – Australia, Brazil, Turkey, and South Africa’s unusual three-capital system are the usual culprits.

Is this quiz free to play?
Yes, completely free, with no sign-up or download needed.
