What is the capital of Hungary?

• A. Budapest
• B. Reykjavik
• C. Dublin
• D. Rome

Answer: (A)

Capitals are the political and administrative centers of a country, where its main government functions are concentrated. Hungary’s government and major national institutions are based in Budapest, a city that sits on the Danube and grew from the historic towns of Buda and Pest, which joined together in 1873 to form one city. That union helped establish Budapest as Hungary’s capital and its cultural and economic heart. The other cities listed are capitals of different countries—Reykjavik of Iceland, Dublin of Ireland, and Rome of Italy—so they don’t represent the capital of Hungary.
