anyang

You'd better read your textbook to find the correct answer. The Shang had several capitals, eventually settling at Anyang, but which was first is largely unknown from 1600 BCE. Whatever your text says is "correct".

To determine which city was the first capital city of the Shang dynasty, let's analyze the options provided:

1. ANAHUAC: This option is not related to the Shang dynasty. Anahuac refers to the Nahuatl term for the Valley of Mexico, where the Aztec civilization thrived.

2. BEIJING: Beijing, formerly known as Peking, is the capital of China but was not the first capital city of the Shang dynasty.

3. ANYANG: Anyang is the correct answer. It was the first capital city of the Shang dynasty, located in present-day Henan Province in China. Anyang served as the political, economic, and cultural center of the Shang dynasty for more than 250 years.

4. GOBI: The Gobi is not a capital city but rather a large desert spanning parts of northern China and Mongolia.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 3: ANYANG.
