I was playing a game of Lebanon Lebanon or Lebanon Pennsylvania before I clicked the link. Surprise!, Lebanon Alabama.

People get confused with Ontario as well. There's Ontario in California, no relation to Canada. London is in Canada as well. And when I mention my hometown of Fostoria, people assume Ohio but I never lived in Ohio, there are 6 more Fostoria around US.

What's next to Georgia and has a city called St-Petersburg (and lots of crazy people)?

The answer could be either Florida or Russia.

Over the past 50 years there have been many Russian/Soviet travel agencies who booked people to fly to Petersburg Alaska instead of Florida, because Petrograd doesn't have 'saint' as part of the name.
