It was lovely to take a mental tour of the Med! Thanks for giving the first letters, I'm sure I would've bombed without them.

Actually, the one in Bengazi was not the U.S. Embassy, which is in Tripoli, but the Consulate

If I may nitpick, in the Algiers question it should be "its" and not "it's"

The one in the picture is missing! It's called Cadaqués, and it's the town where Salvador Dalí settled for a good part of his life.

Beirut is known for so much more than what happened in August. Please replace the clue with another one to fight the normalization of tragedy in the Middle East.

Paris of the Middle East, at one time. Hope it does reclaim all its former glory and stature. It is a place with a glorious history, with much of its recent news unfortunately not good.

Why do people comment stuff like this? I'd understand the complaint if the quiz were "Cities on the Mediterranean Sea Described by the Only Thing of Note Which has Ever Happened There"... but it isn't. It's just a clue, people. Relax.

Couldn't quite think of the olive name - Kalamari, Kalamati, Kalahari oh so close.

I was today years old when I learned of Ragusa. I was only familiar with the Sicilian city of the same name, which still exists today.
