The correct answer is C. A city in Spain also has Santiago in its name.
To understand why people in the Spanish-speaking world often call Chile's capital city Santiago de Chile, it helps to know some historical and cultural context.
Firstly, it is important to note that Santiago is not the only city in the Spanish-speaking world with the name Santiago. In fact, there is a famous city called Santiago de Compostela in Spain.
Santiago de Compostela is located in the region of Galicia, in northwestern Spain. It is an important pilgrimage site in the Catholic tradition, as it is believed to be the resting place of the apostle Saint James (Santiago in Spanish).
During the colonization period, Spanish explorers and settlers brought with them the names of towns, cities, and religious figures from their homeland to the places they discovered or settled. This is why you often see names like San Francisco, Santa Fe, or San Juan in various Spanish-speaking countries.
In the case of Santiago de Chile, the Spanish settlers named the city after Santiago de Compostela in Spain. By adding "de Chile" to the name, it distinguishes it from the original Santiago in Spain and specifies the location as being in Chile.
This practice of naming places after existing cities or religious figures is common in many countries, not just in the Spanish-speaking world. It serves to honor and connect the new settlement with a familiar and significant reference point from the settler's culture and history.
So, in summary, people in the Spanish-speaking world often call Chile's capital city Santiago de Chile because it was named after the city of Santiago de Compostela in Spain, and adding "de Chile" helps specify the location.
