Quizzes | Guess what this mystery country is

Each country, each big city has its symbols, its emblems. It can be an architectural work, a natural monument, a unique animal, or even a specific dish. Some are better known, others less so. Here are some symbols. Can you quickly guess the country associated with it?

First clue

The Grossglockner is the highest point in this country, with its 3798 m altitude. It’s a coveted goal for mountaineers, but the area itself lends itself perfectly to hiking. To get there, the Grossglockner road is a classic: it has 36 hairpin bends over 48 km.

Second clue

Daniel Swarovski founded the crystal factory of the same name in this country in 1895.

A museum dedicated to crystal, the Swarovski Kristallwelten, is a great tourist attraction thanks to ambitious light effects.

Third clue

He thus welcomed Empress Elisabeth (Sissi), as well as Archduchess Marie-Louise and her son, the King of Rome. This one, nicknamed l’Aiglon, was the son of Napoleon Bonaparte.

Fourth clue
