About This Quiz
We've got big states and small ones. States that trend toward desert-like conditions and others that remain more temperate. States you shouldn't mess with and states with "so much to discover." Yet, as vast and as different as this country is, all 50 states share at least one commonality: They all have a state capital where the business of the people is done. State capitals are different from state capitols, but you'll find the latter in the former. A state capital is the city or town designated as the official "headquarters" of a state; a capitol is the building where people like governors, state senators and other legislators meet. So, you'll have a capitol in a capital, but never a capital in a capitol! Phew.
America has some pretty cool state capitals, to be honest. (And, some cool capitol buildings - see: West Virginia's gold leaf dome or Connecticut's castle-like structure.) Georgia's capital is not only the seat of state government, but home to roughly 20 Fortune 500 headquarters. California's state capital was not the first, second or even third to serve in that capacity. Some state capitals are pretty well-known (think Texas) while others might require a good hint (luckily, we have lots of those). So, come on! Make capital connections in this quiz between these important cities and their states. Do you know the difference between Trenton and Topeka? Hartford and Helena? It's time to see ... let's go!
