There is no universally recognized "capital of the world." Different cities may be considered global hubs for various reasons, such as New York City for finance, Geneva for diplomacy, or London for cultural influence.

National capitals:

By city proper, the answer is Moscow.

By metropolitan area, the answer is Tokyo.

Regional (i.e. province/state/etc.) capitals:

By city proper, the answer is Shanghai, though it is technically a stand-alone "province-level" municipality in itself, akin to a city state.

By metropolitan area, if you are to exclude regional capitals that are also national capitals, the answer would be Mumbai.

Of the capital cities of the world today, Damascus, the capital of Syria, is the oldest continuously inhabited city. However, Damascus is not the oldest city in the entire world, although it claims to be. There is no evidence supporting human existence in Damascus's city limits prior to 2,000 BC, while there is evidence supporting Jericho's claim for being the world's oldest city (9,000 BC).

Tokyo, Japan may be considered one of the largest and most populated capital cities. Its city population is about 13 million and the metropolitan area population is about 35 million. However, by some definitions, Buenos Aires, Argentina has a 20% larger metropolitan area (10,888 sq km). The difference is in the consideration of Yokohama as part of Tokyo's area.
