Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte is the location of the Sri Lankan parliament, and the official capital. Due to the fact that it is a suburb of the city of Colombo, Colombo is often listed as the capital.

The best is Antananarivo, Followed by the great Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte, which is then followed by reykjavik, ouagadougu, tegucigalpa, Bandar seri begawan, and the wonderful phnom penh. Of course you must mention bujumbura, N'djamena, naypyidaw, yamoussoukro, tbilisi, nuku'alofa, ljubljana, ulaanbaatar, lilongwe, vientiane, nouakchott, windhoek, bloemfontein, ngerulmud, asuncion, basseterre, paramaribo, funafuti, and sana'a.

Maybe I'm missing something, but why is this quiz set in the mode where you have to answer the highlighted one? I think it would work better if you could just type in the cities and you knew for sure, and then came back to the ones you couldn't remember at the end, w/o having to move that yellow box around.
