Show answer and explanation
✓ Madrid
The Government of Spain has its seat in Madrid, which has also been the capital of the country since the middle of the 16th century. The court was earlier in Toledo and, between 1601 and 1606, in Valladolid. The Prime Minister works and lives in the Palacio de la Moncloa, in Madrid. The Cortes Generales (the Spanish parliament: Congreso and Senado) are also in Madrid. If an option names another Spanish city, even a historic one, it is wrong.
