By Henrik Jeppesen.
Below are the names of all 211 FIFA nations, as well as their capitals. That’s all the members of FIFA. In addition to this, a lot of places in the world are considered countries by many. More about this in this article. You can click on each country for more information. I visited every country in the world of the UN list, the UN list + observer states and the NOC list before turning 28 years. At the age of 30, I completed the FIFA list of nations below.
Some countries have more than one capital, with South Africa being the only country to have three. A unique arrangement to share power across regions. The territory of Montserrat has two current capitals, while one intended as future capital is under construction. You can find more information about the countries with more than one capital in this article by CNN.
