00:00You might think every country has a capital, but two countries actually don't. Small places like
00:06Singapore or Monaco don't count because they are city-states where the city itself is the capital.
00:11But Noru, a tiny island in the Pacific Ocean, truly has no capital because it doesn't have
00:17any cities. It's divided into 14 districts, with about 12,000 people living mostly along the coast.
00:24Surprisingly, it was once one of the richest countries per person, thanks to phosphate
00:29formed from bird droppings, but after the resources ran out, it became dependent on aid.
00:34The second country is Switzerland. Instead of choosing a capital, it kept power balanced
00:39across its 26 cantons and spread government functions across different cities.
