Now I pride myself at being pretty good at quizzes, but this one had me tearing my hair out.. I ended up getting 4 right. http://www.sporcle.com/games/Booger/ClosestCapitalsAnd if anyone claims to get Nouakchott correct I am 100% sure you cheated. |

Did it earlier, got 7. It would help if I knew where Nouakchott was. |

Meh, 5.
Got toally flummoxed by Washington because I spelt the Canadian capital wrong, plus knew which country's capital was closest to Moscow but couldn't remember its name.
Rome was cheeky.
