2 cities in this atlas

Syria's political center and its largest settlement are not the same place. Damascus serves as the capital, but Aleppo, further north, holds that distinction of size. Around them lie a range of other settlements, from Homs and Latakia to smaller places like Dar‘ā and As Salamīyah, spread across the country's different regions.
