Category:Former national capitals
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of cities that once served as the capital of their respective countries, until the countries' governments relocated the capitals elsewhere.
Not included in this category are:
- Former capitals of countries that no longer exist.
- Ruined cities, e.g. Memphis, Egypt
- Former national capitals that are now the capital of another country. For example, Kiev would not be included on this list by virtue of it serving as an early capital of Russia, because it is now the capital of Ukraine.
