A fact under the pun

Every name in Capital and country puns prints its capital: Quito While We're Ahead says that Quito is the capital of Ecuador, Canberra Sauce that Canberra is the capital of Australia. A peninsula is, by its Latin roots, almost an island, and an oxbow lake forms when a bend of a river is cut off.
