Guatemala’s 22 departments and capitals for a Spanish-school stay in Antigua

A student booked into a language school in Antigua Guatemala wants to know the country before arriving. The page’s settings print Guatemala upright on A4 or US Letter: the 22 departments named, a dot at each capital (cabecera) with its name, Guatemala City’s ringed as the national capital.

  1. 44 labels: 22 departments and 22 capitals. Twelve capitals share their department’s name and are still written by their dots, as on Guatemalan school maps.
  2. In the crowded highlands, on A4 and Letter, the name “Sacatepéquez” and the capital “Quetzaltenango” sit beside the map on short lines; on A3 everything fits inside.
  3. Antigua Guatemala, the capital of Sacatepéquez, lies just west of Guatemala City.

guatemala-map.pdf, one upright page with all 22 departments and capitals, from Flores in Petén to Puerto Barrios on the Caribbean coast.

How it works

  1. The map names the departments of Guatemala and marks each capital with a dot and its name.
  2. Choose the paper — A3 leaves more room for the names — or the blank style for a quiz.
  3. Press Make PDF and print; the lines are vector, so they stay sharp at any size.

Frequently asked questions

Do departments and capitals share names?
Many do; every capital is still named, as Guatemalan school maps show it.
Do all the names fit?
On A3 all 44 labels fit inside the map. On A4 and US Letter two go beside it on short lines: the department name Sacatepéquez and the capital Quetzaltenango, both in the crowded western highlands.
Is there a worksheet version?
Yes — choose the numbered style: the departments are numbered and pupils write each name and capital, with the answers after.
Which capitals have a different name from their department?
Ten: Flores (Petén), Cobán (Alta Verapaz), Salamá (Baja Verapaz), Santa Cruz del Quiché (Quiché), Guastatoya (El Progreso), Puerto Barrios (Izabal), Mazatenango (Suchitepéquez), Antigua Guatemala (Sacatepéquez), Guatemala City (Guatemala) and Cuilapa (Santa Rosa). These are the ones to learn first.
Is anything uploaded?
