A country is a place with its own government, borders, and often its own flag and language. There are almost 200 countries in the world.

Every country has a capital city, which is usually where the national government meets and makes important decisions.

Countries can be tiny, like small island nations, or huge, like Russia, which spans two continents.

Learning capitals helps you understand where important decisions happen and how countries are organized.
