      There was that year of time when Poland controlled Moscow, the only nation to ever successfully capture the city. Unleash the husaria!

        France captured Moscow (in a pyrrhic victory…) in the Napoleonic wars.

        It, eh, controlled it with the claim of supporting a legitimate monarchy, so whether it was captured can be disputed.
