US States and Capitals List

US State Capitals

The state capitals are in cities of each of the 50 states. It’s where the seat of the government is located. Some of the state capitals are the largest city in that state, but that’s not always the case. The state capital location was usually chosen for the city’s population size, a city of historical importance like what town in that state was settled first, or even a central location.
