- Strasbourg became German in 1871, not 1870 (Treaty of Frankfurt)
- The roman name of the city was Argentoratum, not Argentina
- The cathedral was originally built in 1015, though it was fully repaired after the 1176 fire so maybe that's where the confusion comes from
Anyway, I'm happy to see my city as part of this project so nominated :-)
