Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Canberra is the capital city of Australia, established as the capital in 1913 as a compromise between the two largest cities, Sydney and Melbourne.
Step 1: Understand the distinction
- Sydney and Melbourne are the largest cities but not the capital.
- Canberra was purpose-built to be the political center, housing government offices and the Parliament.
Hence, option (C) is correct.
