List of country , Capital & Currency is important , but why? Because
One of the most crucial subjects for static general knowledge (Static GK) in the many government examinations given throughout the nation is the nation, its capital, and its currency.
Nearly all significant government examinations have a general awareness portion, which has the lightest mark requirements because it doesn’t require any computations or solutions. However, this is only feasible if the applicant is fully ready.
We provide to you the list of nations, their capital city, and their currency in this article. As it could be useful to them, candidates should understand this to their advantage. A few sample questions about countries, capital cities, and currencies are also provided below.
The table given below gives the list of countries along with their capital, currency and the continent to which it belongs:
