50 capital entries. Just as many convincing impostors. Can you tell them apart?

CAPITAL → NON-CAPITAL → REPEAT

Pick a capital

50 capitals · 50 non-capitals · No timer

Pick a US state capital, then a non-capital, and keep alternating. A wrong pick costs a life. Read the explanation, then try the same category again. Cities are shuffled when you start, then stay in place throughout the round.

What counts as a capital?

All 50 US state capitals, plus 50 non-capitals. State abbreviations identify each city, avoiding confusion between places with the same name. National capitals do not count unless they are also a US state capital.
