There are 10 out of 20 that are non-American. Maybe you should start with the world map quiz. Does Jetpunk have a quiz on how to count?

Expanding on above. London's Lombard Street is the equivalent of Wall Street in New York. The Bank of England is at one end of it, Lloyd's insurance market was previously located there, as were the HQs of most British banks. London should be accepted as an alternate answer.

There may be a Pennsylvania Avenue in Atlantic City, but the White House is at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Every American knows that, so I can't imagine Atlantic City rates on the same level.

But every Monopoly player in the English speaking world knows about the Pennsylvania Avenue in Atlantic City, so it's even. I think it should be accepted. :)

There's a Michigan Avenue in Monopoly too, but I immediately thought of Chicago. I also immediately thought of DC for Pennsylvania Ave.. Also, Monopoly games in other English-speaking countries don't have streets from the USA.

And I'm guessing that there's a fairly large percentage of US Monopoly players that don't realize that the street names are from Atlantic City.

@kalbahamut: this is something, that americans alway forget. They make war in countries far away from home to bring "freedom" but at its all about oil. And then they go home and the people of the invaded countries start to "invade" Europe now - I hope american press is writing about that (if not, I would not be suprised). WE have to clean up your mess and thats why its hard to stand your comments, because you think of yourself as such a wise guy - but are just a typical american. And this says everything!

A European talking about needing to clean up an American's mess. That's just so beautifully absurd I feel like if I say anything more I'm going to ruin it.

Hey McCoy, please tell me, which European country, when it was the world's reigning power, acted any differently? Remember that "the sun never set on the British Empire"? Or how about those Nazis and their Italian allies? The Belgian Congo? Why do you think they speak Portuguese in Brazil, Spanish in the rest of South America, and French in parts of Africa? Do you think they're just fond of those language, or was it maybe that Europeans came over and conquered those people? How about the Dutch East Indies? Is international intervention unique to America, or is it simply that whichever country is most powerful imposes its will, as it always has? It's easy to sit back with a view from the middle and gripe about the US. You know why Ireland doesn't invade countries? Because it can't. Neither can Austria or Latvia or Czechia. So stop acting like its some intrinsically American problem. It isn't. It's a power problem. Always has been.

There is a very famous street in London called Lombard Street. It is historically the main banking street. Also the street in Barcelona is called Las Ramblas. I remember it well because I got my wallet stolen there.

Las Ramblas or La Rambla, both are correct (the former is the Spanish name, the latter is Catalan).

It's one of the major spokes coming from downtown Detroit to the suburbs (and beyond), but realistically, the Michigan Avenue in Chicago is definitely more synonymous with Chicago than the one in Michigan is with Detroit. Woodward Avenue is the big one here.

I think Bordeaux should be an acceptable answer to the Rue Sainte-Catherine question, since it's just as famous as the one in Montreal.
