I love this quiz, but you spell naypyidaw differently than the rest of jetpunk, and you use Colombo instead of Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte.

Thanks for your comment.

I've changed the answers so that the usual jetpunk answers are accepted, too.

The source I used differs in these capitals and I think also in having Melekeok instead of Ngerulmud.

I don't actually know which is more correct but Colombo not being the capital of Sri Lanka kind of sounds weird although I guess "technically" it's more correct.

Thanks again!

Needs updating and accepting the usual abbreviations and spelling.

Updates:

- Bujumbura is now replaced by Gitega.

Abbreviations: For example:

- "Bandar" for Bandar Seri Begawan

- "La Vella" for Andorra La Vella

Bagdad for Baghdad, Teheran for Tehran, etc.

Capital of Kiribati is SOUTH-Tarawa. Not Tarawa. Tarawa is the island.

Same for Melekeok: that is a state capital. The capital of Palau is Ngerulmud.
