Which European capital city was formed in 1873 by the unification of three separate settlements on the Danube river?
Show answer
Budapest
Budapest is famously divided by the Danube River, with the hilly 'Buda' district on the west bank and the flat 'Pest' district on the east. Before their 1873 unification, the two sides were separate cities often at odds, but they are now connected by iconic structures like the Széchenyi Chain Bridge.
