Capital City Quiz Generator
Generates a random country and asks you to name its capital city, with the answer hidden until you choose to reveal it — a quick way to practise world geography.
What this generator does
Asks for a country's capital and holds the paired answer, drawn from one checked list. Narrower than the general geography generator on purpose: a single question type is what makes it useful for drilling.
What's in the question bank
This generator draws from 20 written questions, each stored with its answer. Every question is equally likely, and questions can repeat across separate draws — the tool does not track what it has already shown you.
- What is the capital of Japan?
- Tokyo
- What is the capital of India?
- New Delhi
- What is the capital of the Netherlands?
- Amsterdam
A fixed sample so this page stays the same between visits. The answer is drawn with the question and held until you choose to reveal it, so pressing Reveal never changes what the answer is.
How to use this tool
- Press generate for a random country.
- Think of the capital, then reveal the answer to check.
- Generate again for another country.
Common use cases
- Geography revision
- Classroom quiz rounds
- Family trivia nights
Practical tips
- Run it as a rapid-fire round — the single question type means no time is lost explaining what is being asked.
- Countries with more than one capital, or a recently changed one, are worth checking against a current source before marking anyone wrong.
Entries are chosen with your browser's cryptographic random number generator, so every entry on the list is equally likely. How Generate Random works.
