1. 11,000 feet
   17,000 feet
2. 29,000 feet

The word "tall" is an inexact one; it actually refers to the mountain's elevation above sea level. For comparison purposes: 10,000 feet above sea level is the point at which airplane pilots need to start using supplemental oxygen or risk hypoxia -- which makes clear how amazing it is that some climbers have summited Everest without oxygen.

1. the Hague
   the League of Nations
2. NATO
   the Warsaw Pact

The League of Nations was founded after World War I, and replaced after World War II. The reasons for the changeover were complex, but you have to admit, the outbreak of the bloodiest, most fatal war in human history is pretty good evidence that something isn't working.

1. Tokyo's Harajuku
   Los Angeles's Rodeo Drive
2. Manhattan's Fifth Avenue

Jim Jones was a religious leader from northern California who took his people to Guyana, to create a compound of their own away from the world.
