Does this cover every country?

It covers roughly 195 widely-recognized countries — all UN member states plus a few commonly searched additional entries — rather than every dependent territory in the world.

What about countries with more than one capital?

A few countries (like South Africa or Bolivia) have multiple official capitals for different branches of government. This tool lists the single most commonly cited capital for simplicity.

Can I search using a partial name?

How to Use the Country Capital Finder

Type either a country name or a capital city name to search a hand-compiled list of about 195 countries and their capital cities. Matches update instantly as you type, and you can search from either direction — by country to find its capital, or by capital to find which country it belongs to.

Example

Typing "France" shows Paris. Typing "Nairobi" instead shows Kenya, since the search matches capital names too.

Common Use Cases

Studying for a geography quiz or trivia night.
Quickly checking a country's capital while writing or researching.
Identifying which country a lesser-known capital city belongs to.
