Brasília is the only exception which is a capital of two different
administrative levels. And both the relations for the federal district
[1] and the country [2] correctly express that idea. I know it's not a
rule that applies to every country, and precisely because of that it
would make even more sense to think about relations rather than node
tags to express the idea of a "capital" generically.
