It is one of the oldest extant cities and the oldest surviving one that is used as a modern-day capital.If the question is read as: What capital city that survives to this day was a capital at the earliest period in history relative to all other capitals? then the answer is Jerusalem, Israel/Palestine.Actually, JERUSALEM has been the capital city of the Jewish people since 1006 BCE. Since that time, all Jewish hearts & minds turn in prayer towards Jerusalem three times a day. "If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand wither, let my tongue cleave to my palate if I do not remember you, if I do not set Jerusalem above my highest joy." (Psalm 137)Damascus is the capital of the modern State of Syria. Following WW2, the area which became the modern country of Syria was part of the French Mandate (along with Lebanon). The word "Syria" was used previously to identify the geographic region also called the Levant and now, the Middle East. But it was not a country in and of itself with internationally-recognized borders until it gained independence in 1946.
