Is there a certain criteria how the country name is decided? I just wonder why the Potala Palace is classified as Tibet rather than "China".

To facilitate reference, I sometimes use well-known region names here instead of country names for larger diverse countries.

I think it needs to be more lenient on a lot of the answers...i tried every variation of Palm Jumeirah, The Palm, because that's what's shown, not all three.

Aksum should be enough for the obelisk, Firth of Forth Bridge should work, Sardar Patel is depicted in the statue, Bahai Gardens is a more common name, and not strictly correct but I misspelled Karakoram as Karakorum which I feel should be acceptable.

Otherwise good quiz!

As should Christo Redentor & dropping the word "Dam" in the names of other places

Thanks! "Christo Redentor" is now accepted, but I would not accept the answer without for instance "dam" since it's importance to type out the name in full since that is what the wonder stands for. "Three Gorges" is definitely not an artificial wonder, but "Three Gorges Dam" is one.

Thanks for pointing out! Palm Jumeirah, Firth of Forth Bridge, Bahai Gardens, and Karakorum are accepted! For the others, I would not accept Aksum because it's an ancient kingdom and does not explicitly refer to the obelisk. I would not accept Sardar Patel because 1) he has numerous statues; 2) this tallest statue in the world has an official name and is not the same as a typical statue of him.

Thanks! Apologies for not accepting just "three gorges" since the wonder is the dam instead of the gorges, and it is important to point out the nature of the dam.
