A 'capital' crime is considered to be one involving grave bodily injury or death. Therefore it is impossible to answer the question with a partcular timeframe or penalty. The available range of penalties can be from several years in a state (or federal) penitientiary all the way up to the death penalty.

No, that is why it is called MANDATORY minimum. The legislature has removed from judges the power to deviate from the minimum time required to be served.
Federal law requires a minimum sentence of 5 years for possession of any amount over 5 grams & a maximum sentence of 40 years. If convicted of possession of 50 grams or over, the mandatory minimum sentence is 10 years & the maximum is life
Only ONE? Probably a misdemeanor. 1-99 misdemeanor. 100+ Felony (minimum 5 years jail time)

It can vary depending on the wording of the statutes of the individual states and what the penalty calls for . The classification of 'felony' indicates that it would be a minimum of at least one year.
Knoxville served as the first capital city of Tennessee from 1796 until 1812. Knoxville served as the capital a second time from 1817 to 1818. Nashville was the capital of Tennessee from 1812-1817 and became the permanent capital of the State of Tennessee in 1826.

Yes, Pocatello was briefly a capital. It served as the territorial capital of Idaho for a short period of time from 1866 to 1867 before the capital was moved to Boise.
It depends on the offense that you are charged with. Some have higher sentences than others. The minimum time in jail for a felony would be more than one year.
