The Capitals of Africa - Scores 10 - 20

But... isn't the capital of Tanzania Dodoma and not Dar es Salaam?

surely, it is not what you think that makes right

Cape Town is certainly not the capital of South Africa.

Pretoria, on the other hand, certainly is.

Dar es-Salaam is not the capital of Tanzania, its the biggest city of Tanzania. The capital of Tanzania is Dodoma. :)

i have to do this for my geogaphy test lol

aikheel is right, there are three official capitals in South Africa. A curious scheme were Cape Town serves as the legislative capital, Bloemfontein as the judicial and Pretoria as executive. Pretoria is now known as Tshwane after a rename in 2005. As a South African I would say that most people consider Tshwane to be the (main) capital.

Well, as there is no (or, actually 3) official capital of South Africa, so there is no correct answer as such. Wikipedia, however, claim that Pretoria serves as official de facto capital. Dar-es-salaam on the other hand is completely wrong of course, even though it is the de facto seat of government. Dodoma is still the official capital.

57th woo...

what about Cape Town and Dar-es-Salaam though! they aren't the offical capitals! Pretoria and Dodoma...

Amazing is right.
Pretoria is the executive and should be the capital

I think the correct capital for S.Africa should be Pretoria. Cape Town is the legislative capital not the executive
