Lake Managua
Lake Managua ((:maˈnaɣwa)) (also known as Lake Xolotlán) (located at ) is a lake in Nicaragua. The Spanish name is Lago de Managua or Lago Xolotlán. At 1,042 km², it is approximately long and wide. Similarly to the name of Lake Nicaragua, its name was coined by the Spanish conquerors from "Mangue" (their name for the Mánkeme tribes) and ''agua'' ("water"). The city of Managua, the capital of Nicaragua, lies on its southwestern shore.
==Floodings==
The level of Lake Managua raises significantly during the periods of heavy rain. The highest water level was recorded during the flooding of 1933.〔
The lake rose 3 metres (10 ft) in five days during Hurricane Mitch in 1998, destroying the homes of many who lived on its edge. An even higher flooding occurred in September/October 2010.〔 Since then, the city prohibited the residential use of the most flood-prone areas, those with the elevation below 42.76 meters above sea level.〔
