Fun Facts to Know and Share

That Rome wasn't built in a day is common knowledge. What you may not know is that these other cities, any of them equally large, ancient or exotic, were also not built in a day either:

1. Brisbane
2. Honolulu
3. Barcelona
4. Constantinople
5. Louisville
6. Buffalo
7. Beijing
8. St Petersburg (Russia or Florida) 
9. Pittsburgh
10. San Juan

It is, I think, emblematic of our humanity that - in the 20th Century alone and natural disaster aside, several cities were destroyed in less than a day.
