M- Arabian Nights, hoping I didn't need the numbered part; brain locked on 99 (bottles of beer?), 101 (stupid dogs?)
Tu- Sudan, because Congo is a river and the other ones are definitely huger. I see 125,000 as 400 x 300 = average size prairie state. Even thought of Ivory Coast but Cote didn't sound toothy.
W- Bupkus. I have heard of it. I guess my browsing history isn't highbrow enough to get the popups . (thanks for all the cat videos, but enough golf spam, please :eyeroll:).
Put Instagram just to be wrong.
Th- Didn't know Sleeping Beauty had a name. Don't like title characters as a TOM when the name isn't used in the title. Would have missed it without the fake-out.
F- Remembered/guessed the right name and Roman numeral. Didn't know the other details until Opus posted his take.
Don't like hot food, I'm scared to even look at a Thai or Indian menu.
I apparently got enough of the dead white European male education in 9th grade to get this without caring.
I guessed St. Pete because I couldn't think of Clearwater fast enough. I know both are proximal. (both are about 25 miles, but depending on the bridge situation back then, it might have been a 2 hour auto trip or all day horse ride, so a plane ride is cromulent if you got the coin.

The cities of Lübeck, Hamburg, Bremen, Riga, Königsberg, and Dortmund were among a confederation that was known collectively during the Late Middle Ages as what?
This is one of those embedded knowledge things that might as well have been implanted. At least I've forgotten all those damn explorers and dates so I have room for the times table.
