Interesting how closely this correlates with the general technological advancement of each continent and country.

It's a good quiz, but it could definetely use an update. Malaysia and Egypt have since built taller buildings.

Super quiz. It's mad that Taipei 101 isn't even in the top 4 in its own continent any more.

How is CN Tower not on here for Canada? Total height is taller than USA' s tallest and top floor is at almost 1500 feet.

Level 63

Apr 29, 2023

This quiz only includes structures with continuously occupiable floors. If other structures were included, the USA would have had multiple masts that are taller than CN tower

But you are right that it may be a bit confusing. So I will add some explanation to the introduction, so thanks for the comment!
