About Mind & Trivia

Every U.S. state has a single capital city where its government calls home — sometimes the biggest city in the state, often a quieter one chosen to keep power away from any one metropolis. Statehouses range from modest brick halls to grand domed buildings clad in granite or marble, their rotundas echoing with more than two centuries of debate and ceremony. The gold or copper dome has become the universal shorthand for a seat of state power, visible for miles across a flat prairie or perched on a hill above a river bend.
