Random US State Generator
Random US state with capital.
Quiz yourself on US state capitals or just draw a random state for a road-trip pick, a classroom bell-ringer, or assigning state reports. The tool covers all 50 states plus Washington, D.C., each tagged with its capital and one of four regions. Turn on no-repeats and it tracks drawn states in your browser, guaranteeing no duplicates until all 51 have come up.

Preguntas frecuentes
Is Washington, D.C. in the rotation?
Yes. The dataset holds 51 entries — all 50 states plus Washington, D.C. — so a full no-repeat cycle takes 51 draws before anything comes up twice.
How does the capital quiz version work?
The state name appears alone, you guess its capital, then press Reveal capital to see the answer along with the state's region. It's built for capital-memorization drills.
Can students each get a different state for reports?
Yes. Turn on no-repeats and draw once per student — the tool remembers previous draws in your browser, so no two students receive the same state.
What region labels does it use?
Each entry is tagged Northeast, Midwest, South, or West, and the region appears with every result — handy when an assignment needs states balanced across regions.
Does the no-repeat list reset itself?
Yes, automatically: once all 51 entries have appeared, the memory clears and a fresh cycle begins. Clearing your browser's site data also resets it early.

Flag-matching apps make recognition feel easy, then real recall falls apart. Here's how quiz mode on a random country generator forces active recall instead — plus drill routines for solo study and classrooms.
