Trivia: Which state’s capital has the longest name?

The correct answer is Missouri
So why is this answer correct? : Nope, it’s not Tallahassee, Oklahoma City, Salt Lake City, or Indianapolis — Missouri’s capital of Jefferson City is the longest with 13 letters.

It was named after the third president and co-author of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson.
