Wolfcam's Map Challenge

Answer a question will make a random dot appear on the map. Answer all the questions, then figure out what all the places have in common. Name the pattern AND what each of the dots represents in the comments.
A dot could stand for multiple things. For ex: A dot in London could stand for U.K, Great Britain, London, Big Ben, Thames River, etc.
There ARE extra hidden answers, so answering all the questions will not end the quiz or light up all the dots. This is added so that you cannot just end the quiz and see what the answers would be.

Portland, Phoenix, Pacific, Parana, Port of Spain, Prince Edward Island. Portugal, Paris, Pantheon, Persian Gulf, Pakistan, Panay, Petronas, Puncak Jaya, Perth, and Palau I got from scambigol (great quizzes by the way) and the correct answers for Philadelphia, Parthenon, and Petra are the Potomac river, the Peloponnese peninsula, and Palestine. The correct answer for the Turkey dot (used Wikipedia) is the Pontic mountains. So the answers are Portland, Phoenix, Pacific, Potomac, Parana, Port of Spain, Prince Edward Island, Portugal, Paris, Pantheon, Peloponnese, Palestine, Persian Gulf, Pakistan, Panay, Petronas, Puncak Jaya, Perth, Palau, and finally the Pontic mountains.
