    Description, as the server wrote it
    Dutch courses, university Dutch departments, CNaVT exam centres and Dutch schools for children near a capital city (within 40 km), with the nearest option when nothing is local. Also says where the basic civic integration exam abroad (inburgering, level A1) is taken for a country: the Dutch embassy or consulate, or the country to go to when it is not held there (capital.civic_exam). Pass a capital (e.g. Tokyo) or an ISO country code (e.g. JP). With no arguments, lists the capitals that have a local option. Use it when someone lives outside the Netherlands and Belgium or asks about Dutch classes, the CNaVT exam, the civic integration exam abroad or a Dutch school in another country.
