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.

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.
