State capital
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Not to be confused with State capitol.
In countries with federal constitutions divided into subnational entities known as states, the state capital is the administrative center of a state. Under the federalist system of separation of powers, state capitals are similar to national capitals except that their powers are limited to jurisdiction with the state.
