[edit] Notes
- ^ Bulgarian and Russian can be transliterated in various ways, therefore the two most generally used transliterations are given here.
- ^ Bairiki Village is the former capital of Kiribati and is still the seat of the Presidency, but the official capital is now South Tarawa.
- ^ Brades Estate has been the de facto capital since a volcanic eruption in 1995 covered the official capital of Plymouth, leaving it uninhabitable.
- ^ Nauru is the only country in the world without an official capital.
- ^ The country has a third official language in New Zealand Sign Language.
