Study plan

Learn cabeceras after the map

Play the map quiz first, then start capitals with Santo Domingo and same-name anchors such as La Vega-La Vega, Santiago-Santiago de los Caballeros, Samana-Santa Barbara de Samana, Dajabon-Dajabon, San Cristobal-San Cristobal, San Jose de Ocoa-San Jose de Ocoa, Pedernales-Pedernales, Monte Plata-Monte Plata, La Romana-La Romana. Next drill the exceptions: Puerto Plata-San Felipe de Puerto Plata, Espaillat-Moca, Valverde-Mao, Duarte-San Francisco de Macoris, Hermanas Mirabal-Salcedo, Maria Trinidad Sanchez-Nagua, Monsenor Nouel-Bonao, Sanchez Ramirez-Cotui, La Altagracia-Higuey, Elias Pina-Comendador. Finish with a border pass using Monte Cristi-San Fernando de Monte Cristi, Dajabon-Dajabon, Elias Pina-Comendador, Independencia-Jimani, Pedernales-Pedernales, because those western pairs are often less familiar to new learners.

Frequently asked questions

What is the capital of the Dominican Republic?

Santo Domingo is the national capital of the Dominican Republic. In the regional capitals game, it is the city anchor for National District, while nearby Santo Domingo has its own capital entry: Santo Domingo Este.

Which Dominican Republic capital pairs are harder to memorize?

Harder pairs include Puerto Plata-San Felipe de Puerto Plata, Espaillat-Moca, Valverde-Mao, Duarte-San Francisco de Macoris, Hermanas Mirabal-Salcedo, Maria Trinidad Sanchez-Nagua, Monsenor Nouel-Bonao, Sanchez Ramirez-Cotui, La Altagracia-Higuey, Elias Pina-Comendador. These are useful to isolate because the capital name does not simply repeat the province name.

What are the border cabeceras in Dominican Republic?

The border-area capital pairs are Monte Cristi-San Fernando de Monte Cristi, Dajabon-Dajabon, Elias Pina-Comendador, Independencia-Jimani, Pedernales-Pedernales. Study them as a north-to-south strip after you can place the border provinces on the map.

Should I learn Dominican Republic provinces before cabeceras?

Yes. City recall is easier when National District, Santo Domingo, and Monte Plata, Cibao, the eastern set, the southwest, and Monte Cristi, Dajabon, Elias Pina, Independencia, and Pedernales already have map positions.
