  - I never would have guessed Cairo was that high. -- nm - saint loosilu Nov 1, 13:34 14
    - Thinking about it, Egypt is both one of the most important African countries and one of the most important Arab ones. - Roger More Nov 1, 14:20
    - I did :) -- nm - peglegpete Nov 1, 13:37 12

        I thought of Cairo because it's one of the great old world capitols -- nm - peglegpete Nov 1, 13:47 6
        
        yep. especially since there was a big English presence when many would have been set up. -- nm - zork Nov 1, 13:49
        
        so is Venice. :) -- nm - saint loosilu Nov 1, 13:48 4
        
        yes, but Venice became vastly eclipsed by Rome after the Roman Empire became Christianized in the 400's -- nm - peglegpete Nov 1, 13:50 1
        
        plus all those separate city-states became one country -- nm - zork Nov 1, 13:56
        
        but that's no longer a capital city -- nm - zork Nov 1, 13:50 1
        
        true. -- nm - saint loosilu Nov 1, 13:50
