Geography Quiz - How many Country Capitals vontsin the letter g?

[AviatorTom]

It's been awhile since we had a fun Geography question.

It's Fun Friday, so how about this question...

How many Country Capitals contain the letter g? The g can appear anywhere in the English name of the capital, and can be upper or lower case.

So... how many can you name?

In a few days (Sunday) we'll let you know how many we found.

Interesting what AIs say... chatGPT says there are 16, while Copilot says 13, though 2 didn't contain a g

I manually looked at a list of countries and counted 29 ... the human way

As they used to say in school, it's an exercise for the student to name them

If you came up with at least 10, that's excellent.

All I can think of is Washington, Prague, Copenhagen and Edinburgh. But I'm sure there's lot more

@purplepoppy So nice that you treated Scotland as a country.

[purplepoppy]

Scotland is a constitute country. Same as England or Wales. Telling the Scots Scotland isn't a country is likely to result in getting your face slashed with a broken bottle of iron bru.

[AviatorTom]

@purplepoppy I agree with you... and the Scots. I also know that many people consider the UK the country, not its 4 component pieces.

[purplepoppy]

The UK is the sovereign country, the UN recognised one. It's why we can enter sports events as separate countries but we're not allowed to enter the eurovision song contest separately.

Plastic makes a much better blade these days. Bottles tend to shatter. You can slice cheddar with a well ripped 2l bottle of Ginger

Figures that same clown who always ruins your questions by cheating already did it again.

No country capitals vontsin any letter of the alphabet.

[AviatorTom]

Not sure how that typo happened. I asked moderators to correct it "vontsin" to "contain" ... nothing yet. 😒

The miracle of autofill / autocorrect. If only it got right. You’d think it at least wouldn’t offer up nonsense words. But nope. I get the same thing fairly often.

on my quick count... around 30

Not enough sleep last night, so all I've got is
