World Wise Quiz: Porkopolis
It's no secret that here in Traveler's office that we're suckers for trivia (Marilyn's encyclopedic mind can attest to that). But even we get excited when Assistant Art Director and resident quiz-master Stefan Caiafa's WorldWise quiz goes live on our website, as we're able to indulge our inner nerds under the guise of "work."
This month, Mr. Caiafa's quiz is called "Also Known As" and he's rounded up a gaggle of monikers, nicknames, and sobriquets that are sure to stump you. Do you know which midwestern American city was once dubbed Porkopolis? Or what the Aboriginal people of central Australia call Ayers Rock (pictured)? Or which Middle Eastern city was once called Philadelphia? Test your geography prowess and let us know your score in the comments below. Good luck!
