I’m not a native German speaker obviously, but doesn’t “Das Kapital” translate to “THE Capital”?
Also, English-speakers should call it just “Capital”. Calling it “Das Kapital” is just propaganda to make the title sound more menacing than it is.

"Das Kapital" is like "The concept of capital", articles are required for every noun and dont carry more meaning. In english the difference between talking about the concept of something and a realization of the concept is signified by the ommision or usage of the article. In german nouns need articles always.
