How long did the Iran Hostage Crisis last?

  1. Six months

  2. One year

  3. Two years

  4. Three years

The correct answer is: Two years

The Iran Hostage Crisis lasted for exactly 444 days, which translates to approximately a year and two months. Option A is incorrect because it's shorter than the actual duration of the crisis. Option B is also incorrect because it's missing two months from the actual duration. Option D is incorrect as it's longer than the actual duration. It's crucial to remember that the crisis lasted for a specific number of days, not rounded to the nearest year. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
