Which statement about the Dominican Republic is not true?

Question

A. Christopher Columbus founded Santo Domingo
B. Santo Domingo is the oldest city in the New World
C. Santo Domingo is the Dominican Republic's most important seaport
D. Santo Domingo and Haiti are located on the same island

Answer 1

The statement that is not true is: C. Santo Domingo is the Dominican Republic's most important seaport.

While Santo Domingo is an important city in the Dominican Republic, the main seaport in the country is actually located in the city of Haina, which is near Santo Domingo. Therefore, it may not necessarily be considered the most important seaport. The other statements are true regarding Santo Domingo and its historical significance.
