What is the capital of El Salvador?

• A. Guatemala City
• B. Tegucigalpa
• C. San Salvador
• D. Managua

Answer: (C)

Knowing national capitals helps you identify where a country’s government sits and its main urban center. El Salvador's capital is San Salvador, which serves as the political and administrative heart of the country and is its largest city. The name means "Holy Savior" in Spanish, and the city hosts government buildings and the country’s main institutions. The other cities listed belong to different countries: Guatemala City is the capital of Guatemala, Tegucigalpa is the capital of Honduras, and Managua is the capital of Nicaragua. So San Salvador is the correct capital.
