What was the name of Oslo, the capital city of Norway, previously?
-
Kampuchea
-
Kristania
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The correct answer is "Kristania". The name change occurred in 1925 when the city decided to revert to its original name, which had been Oslo. Kristiania was a name given to the city in 1877 as an attempt to honor the reigning monarch, King Christian IV. However, the change was met with significant resistance, and ultimately, Oslo was chosen to restore the city's historical identity. Kampuchea, on the other hand, is the former name for Cambodia.
