While I'm taking this quiz, the word "Mersey Side" came to my head. While I see the rest of answers, the word "Frankfurt am Main" came, too late, to my head.
Same for me, only without the face-palm. I'm too ignorant to fully appreciate just how ignorant you have to be for that to be completely unfamiliar. Hence, no sense of, "I should have known that!"
I got 12/20 without reading any of the clues, just by listing M things in Europe. If I had read the clues I would've got 15/20, so reading the clues doesn't help me very much.
Macedon and Macedonia are the same name, referring to the same region in ancient times, which roughly corresponds with the region of Macedonia in modern Greece.
Not to be confused with the country of North Macedonia, which has no connection to the ancient Kingdom and owes its name to the Roman province that came afterwards.
Here is an example of ancient Greek using the name here: ΕΣΤΙΝ ΟΥΝ ΕΛΛΑΣ ΚΑΙ Η ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΙΑ (And Macedonia, then, is Greece)
