Villes des USA et surnoms

Bonjour et bienvenue !

Chacune de ces villes a au moins un surnom. Le nouveau challenge est de le retrouver !... Une traduction vous est offerte à la correction, pour ne pas alourdir l'exercice. Une carte, avec pays et villes, construite pour cette occasion, vous situe les villes, les unes par rapport aux autres, avec l'idée de parfaire aussi votre géographie. Les images sont de chez Pixabay, retravaillées. Pour la question 3, je n'ai pas trouvé d'images libres de droits, je l'ai donc créée à partir d'une carte vierge.

Maintenant, c'est à vous.

Amusez-vous bien et bonne chance !
