No, it is because we don't have states.

Does your nation have regions?

Never been in:

Madison's a hop, skip and jump and on the way to most of my in-state destinations.

Heh. My daughter was born in DC proper.

I've been to the capital many times, and also the capitol (Statehouse) once during an 8th grade field trip, which also included going up to the 40th floor of the Rhodes State Office Tower across the street.

EDIT: I went to TN this summer, so now it's 34.

I've been to Montgomery at least once, and I know I pass through it at least twice every two years. I've also been to the capitols (or at least gone through the capitols) of TN, GA, PA, and AZ.

I’m in my provincial capital city....Halifax almost weekly…..but have never been in the legislative building ‘Province House’

formulanone · « **Reply #48 on:** January 08, 2018, 06:16:35 AM »

(Haven't actually been inside any state Capitols, save the US Capitol Building when I was 10.)

Capitol buildings...mostly just drive-up or walk up and take a photo.
AL, FL, GA, LA, TN, TX, RI, NY, CT, IA, NM, WI, ME, OK, PA

Two former Capitol buildings: MS, AR

Visited or passed-trhough capital cities:
Columbia, Raleigh, Richmond, Trenton, Boston, Concord, Columbus, Indianapolis, St. Paul, Denver, Phoenix, Olympia, Sacramento

I guess I could include Salem, OR but just zooming by the outskirts of the city on I-5 seems a bit weak.
