We can even name the country for each respective capital cities. This is normal because the main gateway into most of the countries around the world are through the capital cities.
The main airport is usually located at the capital or the suburb areas of the capital city.
For France, the main airport is Charled de Gaulle Airport in Paris and for South Korea the main airport is Incheon International Airport located in a suburb area of Seoul named Incheon.

Even in the news, when it is involving diplomatic relationship and international conflict; news presenters often mention the capital city when referring to any government or country.
However, not all countries have only one capital city. Minority of the countries globally, have separate administrative and official capital. This is normal due to the congestion or overcrowding in the existing capital city and force the government to relocate to a new location.
For me, this is quite an interesting trivia so that we will not be confused when we different capital cities are used to refer the same country. And it is very useful for your general knowledge also.
