D
Correct answer
Explanation
Ankara became Turkey's capital in 1923 when Mustafa Kemal Ataturk moved it from Istanbul to central Anatolia. This strategic location was chosen to distance the new republic from the Ottoman imperial past. Ottawa is Canada's capital, Amman is Jordan's, and Helsinki is Finland's.
