the question were raised to illustrate what we term as general knowledge is relative to the person.
Americans are very inward looking people.
They wont know about Singapore without such events.
I only knew of Doha after some event, some conference. Trade agreement?
Nigeria is the largest economy in Africa, not SA.
The best selling novel ( sorry not book ) over 500 million copies
is Don Quixote.
