Which term describes the group of people who visit a country?
Correct Answer:
Visitors
Explanation:
The main idea here is the broad label used for people coming into a country. “Visitors” is the umbrella term for anyone who enters a country other than their usual residence for any purpose and for any length of time up to a year. This includes both those who stay overnight (tourists) and those who come for a day and leave (excursionists). Using “visitors” as the group captures all people who come to the country, not just those staying overnight or those traveling in general. If you said “tourists,” you’d be narrowing to those who stay overnight; “excursionists” covers only same-day visitors; and “travelers” is too broad and could refer to travel anywhere, not specifically entering a country.
